    Hi @ziya balay ,

    Welcome to Microsoft Q&A!

    According to the official documentation, there is currently no way to convert a UWP app to an .exe or .msi file.

    The following are the types that can be packaged.

    App Package (.msix or .appx)

    App Bundle (.msixbundle or .appxbundle)

    App Package Upload File (.msixupload or .appxupload) - for Store Submission only

    Thank you.
