I am running into the following error when I upload my msix installer for submission to the Windows store: Package acceptance validation error: The package file Forum-x64-v2.1.0.4.msix specifies a headless app. You don't have permission to create a headless app. Please update AppListEntry="none" in the AppxManifest file and also ensure you have the waiver "HeadlessAppBypass" associated to this app. AppListEntry="none" is set in the AppxManifest file but I'm not sure how to receive the HeadlessAppBypass waiver. Has anyone else run into this?
