To accomplish some scenarios, you'll have to add code to a Windows Runtime component. (Optional) Add a Windows Runtime component Your solution will look something like this: In your packaging project, right-click the Applications node, and then click Add Reference. This is where you'll build a modern XAML UI or use APIs that run only within a UWP process. Add a UWP projectĪdd a Blank App (Universal Windows) to your solution. To do this, see Call Windows Runtime APIs in desktop apps.

Make sure that your desktop application has references to the files that you need to call Windows Runtime APIs. If your solution doesn't contain a packaging project, see Package your desktop application by using Visual Studio. Start with a solution that contains a Windows Application Packaging Project with a reference to your desktop application. First, set up your solutionĪdd one or more UWP projects and runtime components to your solution. Also see Features that require package identity. That includes packaged apps (see Create a new project for a packaged WinUI 3 desktop app) and packaged apps with external location (see Grant package identity by packaging with external location). I did mention in the notes that it was easy to see my name in the About box of the apps as the author.The features described in this topic require that your app is packaged (has package identity at runtime). BTW I have several sites and it would be difficult to change my vendor's email every time. I used my Microsoft account email, which happens not to be on where the apps are regularly sold. I just submitted yesterday two converted apps. Since it is only one month old, I hope it is not bad form to continue it. I was going to create my question when I noticed this discussion which is exactly on the same topic. Thanks for helping make community forums a great place.

Please note that you need to be the developer and/or publisher of the app or game to bring it to the Windows Store. You also need to check the following as the link says: Your app (code) needs to be at Step 5 of that link for being able to run on an XBOX for example.įirst please make sure that the form you filled is the the same as showed in

See this link for further information on the "journey" of your app: Once you complete the conversion process - of migrating your "classic desktop" code into a UWP project, at that time the app will run as a true UWP - and at that point, your app can run across UWP device families (including XBOX One). In other words, just packaging your existing classic desktop app as an APPX, doesn't automatically make it qualified to run across all UWP form factors. Regarding the XBOX One question you originally asked.apps converted using the desktop bridge will only run on the desktop - as long as it references the "classic desktop" desktop project/code. When did you submit the Campaign form? Is it the scenario that you have filled up the Campaign form, waited for a long time, haven't heard back, and are trying to directly submit your converted app to the Store (with the restricted capability)?
