Group MSIX Shortcuts in Folders in the Start Menu

Copper Contributor

Further to the conversion of a batch of App-V packages to MSIX, I have experienced the “StartMenu folder skipped during conversion” Issue nicely blogged by Horatiu Vladasel and also by “Alexandru Marin”.

I know i can rectify the issue by these 3 steps:

  1. Declaring uap3 namespace in the <Package> node,
  2. Stating uap3 in ignorable name space
  3. Using the Visual Group tag at the end of visual element of the application

All good but I want to address this issue programmatically if possible as I will have raft of these to address:

I have found that part of this can be address with the excellent MSIXTweaker tool by Advanced installer . But was wondering if a way to completely do this via say Powershell.

 

Oh my tool set MPT, TMeditX and AdminStudio

Any advice greatly appreciated
