Appx Package Leaves Behind DLLs on Uninstall (Pipeline vs Local Debug Build)
Hello everyone, I'm encountering an issue with my WPF application that's packaged as an appx file for sideloading. I'm new to this area, so any guidance or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Issue Overview: Pipeline Build (Release): The appx package generated in our build pipeline (with code signing) installs and runs as expected. However, after uninstalling the app, certain DLLs remain in the Windows app folder. Local Build (Debug): When I generate the appx package locally using Visual Studio in Debug mode and perform the install/uninstall on the same device, the DLLs are cleaned up properly. I didn't changed any property in the appxmanifest.xml other than the publisher name and the certificate.
Adding URI activation to AppxManifest.xml
Hello, We have automated the EXE to MSIX packaging process. However, we need the created MSIX package's AppxManifest.xml to contain a URI scheme for URI activation(https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/uwp/launch-resume/handle-uri-activation). This is currently possible through the MsixPackagingTool.exe GUI version(package editor). 1) Is it possible to specify this URI through the MSIX template? 2) If not, is there a way to automate the addition of these entries using any command line tools after creating the MSIX package? Thank you!
