I create a windowsphone silverlight app package -> Blah.Xap

Then I place it in my phone.

In theory,

in 'MainMenu'->'Store'->'...'

there should be an option like:

'Install local apps'

But it didn't show up.

That option shows up when I place *.appx (WRT) file in the phone.

So is there anything setting I should set when build the *.xap from VS studio?

Thanks very much for the answer.

AFAIK you can only install apps downloaded from Store in that way. If your XAP is not from Store i.e. built using Visual Studio then it won't show up.

  • so how do I 'publish' a Xap to store? I find tons of articles, but most of them are about storeApp, not xap file.... – ArielX May 06 '15 at 01:40
  • Both XAP and APPX packages can be submitted in same way. Check this link: [Submit your app](https://msdn.microsoft.com/library/windows/apps/jj206724%28v=vs.105%29.aspx) – Abhishek May 06 '15 at 07:24
