Cannot submit to Microsoft Store

Question

I keep getting the error, "Unexpected error, we couldn't complete your request. Please try again later."

Background: I converted an exe installer to an MSIX installer and created a self-signed certificate through powershell.

Also keep getting the Package acceptance validation warning: The following restricted capabilities require approval before you can use them in your app: runFullTrust."

I don't need runFullTrust.

Can anyone share some insight?

Answer 1

Hello,

Welcome to Microsoft Q&A!

As you mentioned, your app is converted from an EXE installer to an MSIX package. The runFullTrust capability will be automatically added to the MSIX package by default. This is the necessary step of the conversion. So, you will need to add not for your app in the Store submission. For more information, you could refer to this document: Manage submission options.

Thank you.

Thanks, Royli. I didn't fully pay attention to this part in Properties and checked the PC option without needing to:
