I am trying to analyse a crash on a windows 10 universal app running on a windows 10 PC using assigned app. Now that only one app can run at a time , in assigned access mode, I cannot run VS remote debugger. Is there an alternative method to debug a windows store app from a remote machine?

You can configure the Remote debugger to run as a service in the "Remote Debugger Configuration Wizard". This will allow the remote debugger and your assigned access app to run at the same time. I didn't try this, but I think it should work.

There is no official way to do this according to Microsoft. But the suggested workaround is to run the debugger process from a remote PC using PSTools

To launch the remote debugger run the following command

psexec \\<computer name> /i /u <computer name>\<The logon user name of Assigned Access> "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 14.0\Common7\IDE\Remote Debugger\x64\msvsmon.exe"
