I am preparing an appxupload package file for submission to Microsoft Store using Windows Application Packaging Project in Visual Studio 2017. In my solution, there are following projects.

  • MyApp (WPF desktop application project)
  • MyApp.Packager (Windows Application Packaging Project)

When I create an appxupload file by "Create App Packages" function, the name of the output appxupload file is automatically set to the following format.

MyApp.Packager_1.0.0.0_AnyCPU_bundle.appxupload

However, I would like to change this format to the following:

MyApp_1.0.0.0_AnyCPU_bundle.appxupload

I have searched the settings of the packaging project to set the output file name but I couldn't find it. So, is it possible to change the output file name by specifying it in some settings files? Or is there any workaround for this purpose?

  • Previously I rename my appxupload package and it can be uploaded to the store successfully.So could you modify the name of the appxupload file manually to try? – DasiyTian_1203 Aug 02 '19 at 06:08
  • @DasiyTianMSFT Thank you for your suggestion. I manually changed the file name of an appxupload file and confirmed that it could be successfully uploaded to Microsoft Store. It is one solution. – emoacht Aug 03 '19 at 12:23

You could rename the appxupload package directly and upload it to the Dashboard as usual. Normally, it can be identified by the store, as long as you use the Windows Application Packaging Project packaging steps without problems.
