Best, Sharla Re: What is significance of "white horizontal bars" on the start menu for MSIX packages. TIMOTHY_MANGAN The bars are progress indicators, showing that the applications are either updating or installing. Re: MMPT Version 1.2022.512 Release Notes?Hi Tim, The release notes are available here: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/msix/packaging-tool/release-notes/history Best, SharlaRe: MSIX packing error on Windows11 Ley We also don't currently recommend converting Office. Windows and Office are working hard to enable M365 Apps (e.g. Word, PowerPoint, Excel) to be packaged and delivered in MSIX format with the same full extensibility that customer enjoy in Click-to-Run and MSI; we’ll communicate details and timelines as these become available. Re: Invalid font names in the Microsoft MSIX Packaging Tool (2022.110)Hi Timothy, As always, thank you for the detailed feedback! Would you be able to share with us the package with fonts that you are using so we can work on improving this experience? Best, SharlaRe: Windows 10 and 11 package icons resourcesHi, Following up here, it seems like this is a known issue but unfortunately does not have an estimated timeline for a fix right now. Our team does not own this area, but I passed along your feedback to the team that does own it. Best, SharlaRe: MMPT 2020.110 and app with elevation via external manifest file.Hi Timothy, Thanks for the detailed feedback, we will add this to the backlog for consideration. Best, SharlaRe: Windows 10 and 11 package icons resourcesHi, Thank you for reporting this issue, we are investigating this and will report back when we have more information to share. Best, SharlaRe: Create custom App Installer experience failed Andreas Kerl Hi, The custom UX for App Installer was rolled back when we rolled back the App Installer App for a security issue. The documentation here was not updated but we will update the documentation to better reflect the state of the custom UX soon. Best, Sharla Re: MSIX Packaging Tool 1.2021.1105 Package Creation ErrorThanks for letting us know Timothy. We have released a new version of the tool with those errors fixed. Best, SharlaRe: Deploy MSIX as Intune LOB appHi, Thanks for reaching out. I am not an expert on Intune so I've reached out to the product team there and am working to get an answer for you. Best, SharlaRe: AppInstaller GUI and Text scalingThanks for letting us know, I've filed a bug on the team!Re: MSIX launch error "The system could not find the filter specified" Hi Sumit007, How are you launching the MSIX? I'm not familiar with this error so if you could please file a Feedback Hub item, we can take a closer look at logs and the package. Best, Sharla Program Manager, MSIX Re: MSIX application with required command line arguments - no stub mattplan8 Thanks for sharing this helpful tip! Re: Questions about MMPT remote packaging TIMOTHY_MANGAN A) Yes. The local/controller sends a "remote server" to the remote. 1. The remote server is run as an uncontained exe. 2. No, it does not need to be installed. Everything needed is copied from the local/controller. 3. There are no issues with an installed MSIX Packaging Tool on the remote/worker. B) Yes, the remote/worker does the packaging and the package is sent back to the local/controller. 1. The exclusion list comes from the local/controller settings. The items are tokenized so it is not specific to the machine. 2. All signing happens locally. C) Are you asking for some sort of status checking ability? Or more a notification of success/failure? could you expand on this ask? Best, Sharla Re: Multiple related products depends on updateHi, Unfortunately, we do not have the expertise to help you here. Please reach out if you are interested in migrating to MSIX or have any questions about MSIX. Best, SharlaRe: How do I migrate/upgrade my users from an .msi to an .msix based setup? Hi deonb11155, Great question, thanks for reaching out! This is because we don't associate the two apps types. How you can do this 'upgrade' depends on how you are deploying your app. If you are using a management tool, you can manage the deployment and uninstallation from there. Or, You can use a script to perform the uninstall when you install the msix. Best, Sharla Re: More Questions about MMPT remote packagingHi Tim, Thanks for asking. This is an intended use case for the MSIX Packaging Tool remote packaging. I'd like to learn more about the failures you are experiencing. We will do some of our own testing as well, but its always helpful to get a variety of testing when trying to determine issues. Best, SharlaRe: Auto-update doesn't work for some users (sideloaded MSIX package) Hi mgregory22, I have just a few follow-up questions to help figure out the issue. I take it you are using an App Installer file to manage your updates? Its possible if there is a mis-match between the app package family name, it isn't updating properly. You can check the app package family name by using this powershell command. Best, Sharla
