Deploying MSIX Package wihtout Internet
In a sideloading scenario, installing a signed MSIX package can be a bad UX experience when internet is not available..
Even though the certificate is trusted, what I see happen in the install, manually initiated by double-clicking on the package file, pause at about the 10% mark in the process dialog. It then takes about 30 seconds and finally produces a dialog complaining that it can't verify via SmartScreen. This dialog can then be manually dismissed, but still...
We ran into this in testing during a training class where internet was not available from the VMs, but I would imagine many customer production scenarios where internet access is blocked from the workstations.
What can be done about this?

TIMOTHY_MANGAN Thanks for pointing this out. Can you please send us feedback on this? We want to check if this is also happening with other installers (i.e MSI).
