  1. UWP apps keep crashing for new users


    We are having an issue with new users not being able to start UWP apps, specifically Camera but this also affects Calculator and the Windows store. The issue seems to affect some devices more than others. The PCs are all running Windows 10 and have all been set up using the same method. The devices are in teaching rooms so have been set not to retain user profiles. This means that every user who logs in is a new user. Going through the re-registration process that is trotted out in every other post about UWP app issues does work but this is a pain having to do this for each user on affec

  2. Error 0x2efd in XMLHttpRequests crashes Hosted Web UWP App

    Hi,

    i also posted this question in the developer forums, cause it is more appropriate there:

    [UWP][HTML]Error 0x2efd in XMLHttpRequests crashes Hosted Web UWP App

    But to give you the asked infos:

    • It is a self developed Hosted WebApp
    • The Windows is updated, Version in previous post
    • The issue started when i first tested the App offline
    • The troubleshooting steps are all described in my post
    • No Screenshot, cause the app crashes silently, when debugging the Exception comes from the WWAHost
    Greetings

    Microsoft Store and many other UWP apps crashes on opening!

    Hi, John DeV.

    I need to switch to macOS, lol.

    Microsoft Store always crashes on opening since 2019.

    A new user very broken and I also try run Microsoft Store Service to Automatic.

    The new user that even I can't open any UWP apps, not that old user only crashes.

    I made 5 users to fix that but what the?

    Thanks, John DeV

    Issues with using Add-AppxProvisionedPackage to provision UWP app

    I am currently trying to manage installation a line of business UWP application on a series of client machines. I need to make sure that the application is installed for any user that signs into windows on a particular machine. To do this I am copying the APPX file of the UWP app to a provisioning directory, and using this command to provision the application:

    Add-AppxProvisionedPackage -Online -PackagePath C:\myapp-provision -SkipLicense.

    The application installs fine for users some/most of the time. However, I am running into a couple of issues fairly consistatnly.

    1. Sometimes, after provisioning a new version of the application, when a new user signs into windows, they still see the previous version of the application installed.
    2. Sometimes, after provisioning the application for the first time, when a new user signs into windows and searches for the app in the start menu, they get no results.

    Both of these issues can be resolved by going to Apps & Features, searching for the application in list, selecting Advanced Options on the app, and then selecting reset.

    This is an ok fix for the short term, but long term, I cant rely on users to always be aware that they may need to reset the app before using it.

    Is there a better way I can go about getting this application installed for all users? Are there additional steps I am missing?
