Actually, I am working on windows phone 8 app. I want to show all installed apps(locally to that phone) to that user who runs this app. May be some nuget required. I could not use Package Class. please provide some code.

  • I doubt the OS will allow you to see what else is installed, when it doesn't even allow you access to the SD card. – Panagiotis Kanavos Nov 22 '13 at 10:33
  • not a duplicate. actually, i think that was about to get remotely but i need to show installed apps to the running user; not send this info to network – Zaheer Mehmood Nov 22 '13 at 10:39
  • It is a dubplicate for sure. The accepted answer of http://stackoverflow.com/questions/13599631/get-list-of-all-installed-applications-in-windows-phone-8 is the answer to your question as well.

  • It's a duplicate. The questions are NOT for getting the list remotely, and the answers show that it isn't possible. – Panagiotis Kanavos Nov 22 '13 at 10:43
  • I tried the following code but "Package" showing namespace or reference error http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/apps/br240969.aspx – Zaheer Mehmood Nov 22 '13 at 10:44
  • That's because you cant use the `PackageManager` class. It's not available for Windows Store apps and not Windows Phone apps either http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/apps/windows.management.deployment.packagemanager.aspx. – venerik Nov 22 '13 at 10:57
