Repacking a crappy java based app. initial packaging seemed fine, no major issues. During testing it failed and the application logs pointed at some files being missing.
used invoke-commandindesktoppackage to confirm that the files were in fact in the container.
another test using invoke-commandindesktoppackage with the -PreventBreakaway switch to execute the application, works.
Just starting my msix journey, seems pretty nice but this is likely to be a sticking point for some apps if I can't force children to play in the boxes.
Anyone have a solution other than creating a terrible shortcut to run the invoke powershell command? I haven't seen anything in the manifest xml options that looks like it would help me.

Thanks Tim
I'll give it shot, appreciate your activity on these forums. I was reading your blog recently for the PSF stuff but I haven't had to use it yet (well I guess until now).
Seems like it would be an easy update if the powershell command can force the container behavior, I would have hoped microsoft would add in a similar toggle in the manifest.
