I have created an electron app distributable as Windows Store Application by using electron-windows-store.
After installing the .appx package I'm able to launch it and use it without any problem, but when I try to setup an assigned access for a Standard User with the same App the application fails to startup.
Syntoms are the same that are state in this other StackOverflow question, but the answer does not apply to my case, because the generated package is 64-bit.
I'm not able to find any other clue about the reason why it fails, so I don't know whats wrong.
I'm ready to betatest my UWP app on my different computers. For that I'm following the article "Packagin Universal Windows apps Windows 10". After struggling a bit with the different sizes of icons needed to scale the graphics properly, it finally generated the files needed to install it. :)
Visual Studio then moves on to run the "Windows App Certification Kit" (step 10 under "Create an app package"). This should be as easy as just clicking "Next" a bunch of times and just wait, but it fails!
I tried to run the certification manually by starting the certification kit directly from the start menu. When I select a package to certificate, it fails. If I use Visual Studio to "debug" the app in Release, it passes (so at least that's good news).
Following the article How to troubleshoot app package signature errors I looked in the Event Viewer, but can't find any other references to the error codes.
The error message "A resource does not have default or neutral value" is really not helpful when it's not specifying the what resource it's talking about. The link is to the article "Troubleshooting packaging, deployment, and query of Windows Store apps" does not help in my situation either as it only gives "The package can't be registered. Check the AppXDeployment-Server event log for more info." for the error code 0x80073CF6, and that's where I was looking. The other error code (0x80073B06) is not mentioned there at all.
I also get the same error when I try to install the package using the PowerShell script. I install the certificate first (under "Trusted People" as I'm told), and then run the script in powershell. I've tried with and withouth administrator rights. And on three different computers.
Powershell gives this error:
I'm not sure where to take it from here. I was hoping to put this in the Windows Store as I need help beta-testing, but so far it's not looking good! :(
What am I missing or doing wrong?
Please check your package.appxmanifest for something missing in Assets....that may be the cause
Deploying universal application results in "package could not be registered"
I have developed an QML application (Mingw). I want to deploy this app to other Windows system. My instructions are:
Building app in Release mode
Run windeployqt.exe for necessery dlls and folders.
Adding missing dll.
Problem is, when I start my app, it seems to work in background and no window appears. I have wasted a lot of time on this.
I know it's an old question. For anyone to get here looking for an anwser, try using:
windeployqt.exe . --qmldir <\project\folder\>
I got a weird problem with my VB app that has got me very confused. I am updating an existing program. I had to add some processing queue capabilities. On my system, unit testing worked great but when I compile it and run it on a different computer (a network server machine) it first tries to open an office install. If I cancel this, the program seems to run fine. The problem is that this program will be run in the background and I can't be hitting cancel each time it runs.
So my question is this: what is going on here? I'm usually a java developer we eclipse so I'm used to being able to include all the needed libs into the jar files automatically. It doesn't seem like the case with VB6. it seems like it expects all the same libs to be on all the systems. Is there any way to tell what might be triggering this?
The only thing I can think of that is causing it is that I'm using the "OpenProcess" function in the kernal32 lib. that the only major change I have made.
any help would be very appricated. thanks!
EDIT:
It seems that multiple versions of word were installed on the system and it was screwing things up somehow. We uninstalled one and it fixed it.
I ran into this a while ago and it was related to my installer for the VB6 app overwriting some system files for Office that it shouldn't have. Any time one of the System dlls was accessed Windows would determine that something was wrong and the Office installer would start up.
The short-term fix was to let the Office Installer repair the broken chain of dlls.
The long-term fix was to never overwrite built-in Windows System dlls.

How do I get Microsoft.Phone.Media.Extended dll file for my project? I am unable to find this anywhere. Can someone help me?
Thanks

You have to be aware that this DLL is not a part of the public SDK, therefore your application will not pass Marketplace certification if it is using it. You can get it by dumping the emulator OS image, for example, to get the GAC.
Or you could use reflection. I worked on that here.
EDIT: Since you need to access the flash, are you aware of this? It's been in Mango for a while now:
