UWP Package Installer Versions Save

An UWP installer for appx/appxbundle packages

1.9.6.0

4 years ago

Closes #6

How to install:

Make sure you EXTRACT EVERYTHING first! Then...

On Phone: Use the Windows Device Portal to install this (There's an option to do it on your phone if you don't have a PC to help you): https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/uwp/debug-test-perf/device-portal-mobile) or select the appxbundle in the file explorer and hope for the best. First method works way better though.

On PC:

  • Step 1 Install the certificate: Right-click the .appxbundle file > Properties > Digital Signatures > Select the one that's there > Details > View Certificate > Install Certificate > Local Machine > Install to the "Trusted People Store".
  • Step 2 Install the package: Run the .appxbundle file. It will install. (and should continue to install for about 10 years for at least 10 years since this was written in 2020).

On PC: Add the certificate to the "trusted people store" then install the appxbundle. There are other methods too but this one is the quickest one as far as I know.
