Installation of any Windows Store Application.

Can I install some Windows Store Applications to the
optional directories and or drive.

Unfortunately, no. You can define a different path to install Store Applications to, but they all have to go to that location. You cannot have some in one directory, and some in another.
To change the default path, you'll need to head into your registry and change a key - see the screenshot below for more info:
Keep in mind: if you change the path, and you already have some apps installed, you will no longer be able to update them. This is because they'll exist in the old path - not the new one. To prevent this, you'll need to uninstall all apps
(built-in as well as apps you've installed), then change the path. See
this link for more information.
Hope that helps!

What is the alternative for DisplayMemberPath="Value" for Windows Store applications?

I think there is a bug with Windows Store Applications when it comes to using DisplayMemberPath="Value".
Here is my code
<ComboBox Height="40" VerticalAlignment="Stretch" SelectedValuePath="Key" DisplayMemberPath="Value" x:Name="comboBox1" FontSize="25"/>
var source = new Dictionary<string, double>();
source.Add("Item1", 0.4);
source.Add("Item2", 0.3);
source.Add("Item3", 0.1);
source.Add("Item4", 0.1);
var formateDSource = new Dictionary<string, string>();
foreach (var item in source)
formateDSource.Add(string.Format("[{0}, {1}]", item.Key, item.Value), item.Key);
comboBox1.ItemsSource = source;
If you use this code in WPF in works perfectly. However if you use this code in a Windows Store Application then the Combo Box is empty and an error is thrown. So is there an alternative way to do this in Windows Store Applications and have I unearthed a
bug? Because I have researched the Web for days and found no solution to this.*please do not comment unless you have tried my code as a Windows Store App not a WPF in Visual Studios. Can Someone post an example based on my code that works in Windows Store
Apps please because this is terrible.
Thanks

It looks like you got an answer on SO:

Is there any app store applications we can buy or get free which will permit to divide the screen in 2 such a way we can read at the left and take notes at the right ?

Are they any app store applications we can buy or get free which will permit us to divide the i-Pad screen in 2 , at the left we , for example , read a newspaper , and at the right , we can take notes ? Thanks for tour help .

I do not think there is an app for that..... Yet. Part of the difficulty is the 'sandbox' nature of apps. One app cannot open another app. ( with a few controlled exceptions)

Migrating a legacy VC6 application to Windows Store application

Hi,
I have a legacy VC6 application. It is developed purely in C++ and MFC.
I need to run this on Windows RT tablet.What should I do?
Is it possible to migrate the old application to Windows Store application?
Also, what are the system specifications and tools required to develop the Windows Store application?

You will have to rewrite at least the UI portion of your application. Further changes depend on what system functionality you are using. The more of your code is dealing with system calls the more changes will be necessary.
So basically you will likely be able to reuse parts of the code implementing your business logic but everything dealing with file accesses or presentation will likely need to be reworked. There is no automated process to transform Applications from targeting
Win32/MFC to WinRT.
As development tool I would suggest to use Visual Studio 2013 running on Windows 8.1.

Unable to open any Windows 8 application

I just recently started experiencing issues when attempting to access Windows 8 apps. There a two different scenarios that are going on and one root cause to the issue that I have found through the troubleshooting steps that have been provided
in various other threads about applications that cannot be opened.
The obvious error that is being seen is "This app does not support the contract specified or is not installed." when accessing settings options such as "Lock Screen Settings". The second issue is when accessing the "PC
Settings" application, it minimizes to the desktop and cannot be upsized.
From the troubleshooting efforts I have taken through various other issues that are similar but not quite this problem, I have identified it is because the profile I am using is lacking a proper Microsoft Account and I need to enter in my credentials to resolve
these problems. The issue with doing that is that when going into the "Your Account Settings" app or the "PC Settings" app I am faced with one or the other of the issues that were mentioned above.
Is there any alternate way to add the my Microsoft credentials to my account to resolve this issue?

Certificate for a Windows Store application

So that an WinRT application can be internally distributed via Intune I need to attach a certificate as per
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/apps/br230260(v=vs.110).aspx
I go to the package.appxmanifest screen, click choose certificate - > configure certificate - > select from file. I double click on the relevant certificate, and type the password. I then get the error message "The Manifest Designer could not
import the certificate. The certificate you selected is not valid for signing because it is either expired or has another issue. For more information see http:/go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkId = 241478", which is the same page I linked to earlier.
Alternately, I import the certificate to my local store, the on the package.appxmanifest click choose certificate - > configure certificate - > pick from certificate store. I then get the error message "No certificate available. No certificates
meet the application criteria. Click OK to continue".
How can I resolve this?

It turns out that it's really fussy about certificate Usages as specified in Enhanced Key Usage, as per the link I posted earlier.
During packaging, Visual Studio validates the specified certificate in the following ways:
Verifies the presence of the Basic Constraints extension and its value, which must be either Subject Type=End Entity or unspecified.
Verifies the value of the Enhanced Key Usage property, which must contain Code Signing and may also contain Lifetime Signing. Any other EKUs are prohibited.
Verifies the value of the KeyUsage (KU) property, which must be either Unset or DigitalSignature.
Verifies the existence of a private key exists.
Verifies whether the certificate is active, hasn’t expired, and hasn't been revoked.
I had mistakenly though that by going to Certificate Properties - Certificate Purposes - Enable only the following properties and
unchecking properties that were invalid for this purpose (i.e. everything but Code Signing) I could use a certificate that we already had. That doesn't work.
I resolved my problem by acquiring a certificate that did only have Code Signing as an Enhanced Key Usage.

Creating multiplayer Windows Store application.

Hi!
I create mutliplayer game for "big and small" Windows and decided to use socket thought TCP to transfer data in my application. My problem is in creating server, that can be found by the other clients. How can I do it?

Hi MiXenXd,
The DatagramSocket itself is a UDP datagram socket.
StreamSocket class is over TCP socket, see
How to connect with a stream socket for more information.
As you can see in the DatagramSocket methods, it can bind to a local service as a listener but streamSocket cannot do the same thing, perhaps we should discover the game server by UDP and talk to it by TCP

Windows Embedded 8.1 Industry Pro Application Launcher Remote Desktop Services Feed VDI with Windows Store Remote Desktop Client

I wanted to make kiosks which are joined into a domain and set up with an Remote Desktop Web Feed with VDI Desktops (to support Single Sign On and minimize configuration needs on the client side). And I wanted to lock those Clients to launch only the Remote
Desktop Windows Store application. And if somebody clicks on a Desktop Pool then connect to the choosen Pool. But instead of doing this the Remote Desktop application opens the Pool within the old mstsc.exe and right after connecting the OS switches the focus
back to the Remote Desktop Windows Store application. And nobody can work in the office with this configuration.
So how can I correct this problem? Any other solutions? What is the official way to doing this?

Hi,
Based on my test, we cannot associate .rdp files with the Remote Desktop Windows Store App. Therefore, you may have to use MSTSC or configure the setting in the Remote Desktop
Windows Store App manually.
Best Regards.

Launching a windows store app after installation using c#

I am just curious if there is a way i can launch installed windows store applications within an application. I mean when i click an app, it launches if installed or downloads and launch from windows store Thank you...

Hi Joseph,
You cannot force an application to download and install from the Windows Store, by-design. Only the user can allow an app to install.
If you have an app already installed, you can use the
file protocol or URI activation to launch apps which are designed to handle the specific resources, but you can't simply open another app without context.

Windows Store App Builder now available!

App Builder for Windows Store applications is now available! All DPS Professional and Enterprise customers can build Windows viewers by visiting http://appbuilder.digitalpublishing.acrobat.com/.
Submitting apps to the Windows Store is somewhat different than what you may be used to on iOS and Android so Bob's put together a handy set of help topics to guide you through the process:

DPS on Windows 8.1 is pure genius on the part of the DPS team. On a tablet
it’s all about touch of course, but on a desktop or laptop it works
beautifully with keyboard and mouse.
For a sample of it, download Adobe’s Inspire Magazine app from the Windows
Store.

[Windows 8.1] Installing Microsoft Store Application Developer Program (MSADP) Applications

Hi,
In the Windows 8.1 Enterprise Device Management Protocol document, the installation of MSADP applications is mentioned.
I tried to obtain the information in regard to MSADP on the internet, but not success.
Are there any web sites or official documents available for MSADP?
I don't even know if the program is available to all the countries in the world...

The program is designed to help facilitate the pre-install of apps in large institutional device deals, currently piloted for Education.
To give you some background, Windows Store apps are obtained by individuals logging into the Windows Store and obtaining apps on an individual basis through a Microsoft Account (MSA). The Microsoft Application Deployment Program was created to help facilitate
unblocking Educational customers where MSA restrictions prevent institutions from obtaining apps.

Documentation for Online Store or any other Apex application?

Hi!
I'm trying to understand Apex "Online Store" sample Packaged Application
dowloaded from
http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/database/application_express/packaged_apps/packaged_apps.html
After having spent several days trying to "decode" this Application,
with some moderate success,
I decided to ask if there is some documentation/explanation of this Application,
or alternatively if you could point me
to some other well documented and explained Apex Application,
preferably with "online store" features.
I'm a newcomer to Apex, PL/SQL, and the rest of Oracle culture.
I've studied manuals and tutorials such as
- Apex 2 Day + Application Express Developer’s Guide
- Apex Advanced Tutorials
- Apex Application Builder User’s Guide
- Database 2 Day Developer's Guide
Thank you very much,
Marios

Yes, I did (turning off and then on again is a way of life for any windows user!). Actually, through a process of trial and error I have fixed the problem although I'm not very comfortable with the fix. For some reason, the OS X firewall is to blame. By relaxing the firewall settings to their most lenient, the iTunes store is now fully accessible via iTunes, and so is the whole of the apple website. Another added side effect has been that general web browsing is now lightning fast.
I'm therefore left with the (temporary) conclusion that my iMac's internal firewall is only capable of blocking access to the web resources of the people who created it, and slowing my web browser to a crawl.
