		</uap:Extension>



        builder
                .UseMauiApp<App>()
                .ConfigureLifecycleEvents(events => {

#if  WINDOWS
                    events.AddWindows(windows => windows
                           .OnLaunched((window, args) => {

                               var activatedEventArgs = Microsoft.Windows.AppLifecycle.AppInstance.GetCurrent().GetActivatedEventArgs();

                           }));

Hello,

This is a known issue in WinUI.

According to Can't get parameters on URI activation #8855, you could use Environment.GetCommandLineArgs() to get the startup parameters.

Please refer to the following code:

#if WINDOWS
                    events.AddWindows(windows => windows.
                    OnLaunched((window, args) =>
                    {
                       
                        var p = Environment.GetCommandLineArgs();
                        if (p != null)
                        {
                            Console.WriteLine(p);
                        }
                    }));
#endif

After testing, when the program is started with demyai://?para=test, the variable p can get this URI parameter.

Best Regards,

Alec Liu.

Do you already have access to startup parameters? For another question, according to the Q&A policy, it is recommended that you create a new Thread.

To ensure that you receive a clear and helpful answer to your questions, it's important to post them individually. When you have multiple questions, each with its own distinct scenario, it can make it more difficult for the community to understand the problem and provide an accurate solution. For this reason, we recommend that you create separate threads for each of your questions. This way, the community can give you their undivided attention and provide the best possible response.
