    MSIX Specifications


    Hello community. I'd like to know the specifics of the MSIX format, especially how the AppxBlockMap.xml is created. I know the container is actually a zip64, but I ignore how the entries are stored. Is each file compressed normally or compressed block by block, like each block is independent? Thanks A lot!

    :)
