Hello,

Is it possible to launch a Windows Store application with VB.net?

The app is called Rummi. I would like to launch it from a Desktop program with VB.Net.

Thanks

    Hi,

    The correct way to launch Windows Store apps is to use the IApplicationActivationManager interface. This is also what Visual Studio itself uses for launching the application. All methods on the interface have a DWORD out parameter which gets you the PID of the newly launched process.
