Hi. How do I add a new file type to the packaging of a desktop application?
A part of the .NET Framework that provides a unified programming model for building line-of-business desktop applications on Windows.
Is your application a WPF project? Which tool did you use to package your application? What the type of file do you want to add to the package? Please give more description of your question for us to analyze.
Sorry for the delay. It used the Visual Studio packaging tool by default. Yes, it is a WPF project. It is a serialized file with a new extension.
