public:
 virtual IIterable<Package ^> ^ FindPackages(Platform::String ^ packageFamilyName) = FindPackages;
/// [Windows.Foundation.Metadata.Overload("FindPackagesByPackageFamilyName")]
IIterable<Package> FindPackages(winrt::hstring const& packageFamilyName);
[Windows.Foundation.Metadata.Overload("FindPackagesByPackageFamilyName")]
public IEnumerable<Package> FindPackages(string packageFamilyName);
function findPackages(packageFamilyName)
Public Function FindPackages (packageFamilyName As String) As IEnumerable(Of Package)

Parameters

packageFamilyName
String

Platform::String

winrt::hstring

The package family name. This parameter cannot be null.

Returns

If the method succeeds, an enumerable collection of package objects with the same package family name will be returned. Each Package object in this collection contains information about the package, including but not limited to its name, publisher, version, and install location. If no packages with the specified package family name are found, this method returns an empty list.

Attributes

Windows requirements

App capabilities
packageQuery

Remarks

This method requires administrative privileges. Each package in the IIterable(Package) collection may be installed for the current user or for another user. This method differs from FindPackages(String packageName, String pulisherName) method. Here the packageFamilyName parameter is a single string, comprised of the package name and package publisher hash.

Examples

This example uses FindPackages() to enumerate the installed packages for all users.

using Windows.Management.Deployment;

public static int Main(string[] args)
{
    PackageManager packageManager = new PackageManager();

    IEnumerable<Windows.ApplicationModel.Package> packages = 
        (IEnumerable<Windows.ApplicationModel.Package>) packageManager.FindPackages();

    int packageCount = 0;
    foreach (var package in packages)
    {
        DisplayPackageInfo(package);

        packageCount += 1;
    }

    if (packageCount < 1)
    {
        Console.WriteLine("No packages were found.");
    }
}

private static void DisplayPackageInfo(Windows.ApplicationModel.Package package)
{
    Console.WriteLine("Name: {0}", package.Id.Name);

    Console.WriteLine("FullName: {0}", package.Id.FullName);

    Console.WriteLine("Version: {0}.{1}.{2}.{3}", package.Id.Version.Major, package.Id.Version.Minor,
        package.Id.Version.Build, package.Id.Version.Revision);

    Console.WriteLine("Publisher: {0}", package.Id.Publisher);

    Console.WriteLine("PublisherId: {0}", package.Id.PublisherId);

    Console.WriteLine("Installed Location: {0}", package.InstalledLocation.Path);

    Console.WriteLine("IsFramework: {0}", package.IsFramework);
}
