Is Windows store app can hold 500 pages?

I want to create a game with 500 level each level written in every page, so i need 500 pages. Is windows app can hold 500 pages in one project?I just remove backStack to optimize the app. I am just absolute beginner sorry for that.

That sounds like a really bad design to me.
Can you not dynamically fill the page with your "level" instead when the page is navigated to? Use a Canvas or other control (as your level needs) and then use a proper class in code-behind to put the current level data to the page?
Use the same page every time. When the user has to go to the next "level", just change the level to the new one and re-populate the page.
There are other things to think about when asking "can I have 500 pages..." such as how you'd recover from a tombstoning event such as being navigated away from. How would you get the user back to the 433 page quickly, as an example?
Also - If you wanted to add a new feature to each page, you'll have to go and do it 500 times.
And - If you want to move your project to another platform now or in the future, how long will it take to re-create 500 pages?

Windows Store App can't verify the server is trusted for your sign in address

I am aware this is (or was) an issue for the Lync 2013 client as well, as per
http://terenceluk.blogspot.ie/2013/04/signing-into-lync-2013-client-presents.html
This does seem to be fixed at this stage though, because after adding lyncdiscoverinternal.SIPdomain.com the Lync 2013 client does not prompt about the certificate.
However, the Windows Store app does prompt "Lync can't verify that the server is trusted for your sign-in address. Connect anyway?" This presumably boils down to the same issue where our Lync 2013 Frontend is lyncfrontend.internal.domain.com which
does not match the SIPdomain.com.
Is there a fix for this other than forcing lyncdiscoverinternal to the reverse proxy? The TrustModelData registry key only applies to the Lync 2013 full client so does not affect the Windows Store app.
Any suggestions would be welcome.

Hi wagenveld，
Create the DNS records as below:
Internal SIPdomain.com zone:
DNS A record：
lyncdiscoverinternal.SIPdomain.com-> sip.SIPdomain.com
DNS A record:
sip.SIPdomain.com-> IP address of Front End Server
For details, you can refer to the following blog:

Windows Store apps on Windows Server 2012 with XenApp?

We've got asked by a vendor whether our app will be able to support multiple simultaneous users, when installed on Windows Server 2012 and accessed via XenApp.
I suppose the real question here is whether or not Windows Store apps can be run in XenApp over Windows Server 2012 at all, and if so whether there are any special requirements on the apps to support multiple simultaneous instances execution.
The app itself takes each user through a log in procedure, during which all the dynamic user-specific data is retrieved from the back-end server; no such data is stored by the app locally.
Any advice will be greatly appreciated!
Thank you,
Alex

[Forum FAQ] Go to Start Screen/Desktop when closing Windows Store App

After install Windows 8.1 Update 1, you will notice these things set by default even on touchscreen laptops and desktops:
Windows 8.1 now boots directly to the desktop.
Closing Windows Store Apps and go to desktop instead of Start Screen.
Besides option “When I sign in or close all apps on a screen, go to the desktop instead of Start” since Windows 8, another new option in Taskbar Properties “Show Windows Store app on taskbar” is used to control closing app behavior.
Features of "Show Windows Store app on taskbar"
When the setting is checked, all of the Windows Store apps that are currently running will display on taskbar. You can easily switch between Windows Store apps and your desktop and its applications through the taskbar. For mouse users,
you can also access the taskbar within a Windows Store app. Just move the mouse cursor to the button of the screen, the taskbar pops up.
When the setting is unchecked,
Windows Store apps have no minimize button, only Close button
Windows Store apps that are open are not visible on Taskbar
Windows Store apps can still be pinned to the taskbar
How do these two options work for closing app behavior?
Modern app and Taskbar setting
OFF
ON
Boot to desktop setting
OFF
Close goes to Start
Close reveals the app that was previously used, and eventually dead ends at the Desktop
ON
Close goes to desktop
Close reveals the app that was previously used, and eventually dead ends at the Desktop
Know why “When I sign in or close all apps on a screen, go to the desktop instead of Start” does not work when “Show Windows Store app on taskbar” is checked on
As MironV mentioned in the
thread, Windows 8.1 Update is designed to introduce a number of changes for mouse and keyboard users that would help them use and switch between Windows Store apps alongside their familiar desktop applications. A lot of these changes only made sense when
combined together, so they are toggled by one setting, which is “Show Windows Store apps on the taskbar.” This is usually enabled together with the first setting as a complimentary set of improvements for desktop users. When the setting is enabled, Windows
Store apps are intended to feel more like regular maximized applications living on the desktop, though they are full screen only. For example, when you launch apps from Start, they appear on the taskbar until they are closed. You can also minimize them or
switch between them by invoking the taskbar.
Please understand that unchecking the “When I sign in or close all apps on a screen, go to the desktop instead of Start" setting has no effect on close and minimize behavior when the “Show Windows Store apps on the taskbar” setting is checked, since
they are controlling two independent things. If you tend to use only one Windows Store app at a given time, it may seem like we’re not respecting the setting by going to the desktop.
Please click to vote if the post helps you. This can be beneficial to other community members reading the thread.

I don't know if I'm the only one, but on my desktop (using mouse and keyboard only) I like to have my Start screen as my main screen. To ensure this I made sure to uncheck the "When I sign in or close all apps on a screen, go to the desktop" box and
check the "Show Start on the display I'm using when I press the Windows Logo key" box. I also really like having the task bar appear at the bottom even when I'm using a modern app. Based on the settings I've chosen (i.e., boxes I've checked or not checked),
I would expect to be taken back to the start screen and not the desktop whenever I close an app. From what I've read from your response and from others in this thread, in order to accomplish this function (i.e., closing an app and going directly to the
start screen) I need to uncheck the "Show Windows Store apps on the taskbar" setting. By doing this I get the functionality I was looking for when the apps are closed and I get sent to the start screen. However, I am now not able to see the taskbar
when I'm in a modern app or when I'm on the start screen. This seems counterintuitive/confusing as many have mentioned. Not to mention it creates an additional step for users to get back to the Start screen.
All I want to do is (1) use my start screen as my main screen, (2) see the taskbar when running whatever app I'm using (e.g., modern), and (3) go back to my start screen (and not the desktop) when I close an app. It would only make sense that I should
get these results if I leave the "Show Windows Store apps on the taskbar" box checked and the "When I sign in or close all apps on a screen, go to the desktop instead of Start" box unchecked; but unfortunately this is NOT the case. I really hope that
an update fixing this is coming sooner rather than later because this is really annoying.

Is it possible to open Excel file in XAML Windows Store App?

Hi,
I want open excel file from local folder(not from Url) within the windows store app.
Could you please help me how to implement ?
Thanks,

Thread response from msdn

Hi,
If you want to open an excel file by a windows store app. There is no direct API in windows store app can handle excel file. You will need to find a third party component. But
if you want to launch a file into its default handler, please see
Launcher.LaunchFileAsync API. And you can refer to the link below:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/apps/xaml/hh779671.aspx
private async void Button_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
StorageFolder storageFolder =
Windows.Storage.ApplicationData.Current.LocalFolder;
StorageFile file =
await storageFolder.GetFileAsync("56.xlsx");
if (file != null)
// Launch the retrieved file
var success = await Windows.System.Launcher.LaunchFileAsync(file);
if (success)
// File launched
else
// File launch failed
else
// Could not find file

Tabbed page in a Windows Store App

I am creating a Windows 8.1 app (Windows Store App) and I need to have a tab-based page in this app. As an example, for adding a new contact, I need to group the new contact details in tabs which can be switched from the left side
menu items.
I tried to use a FlipView for this purpose but I don't want the users to be able to switch between pages by flipping. I want to create a page similar to
[Add a recipe] page in Microsoft Food & Drink app.
How can I do this?

You can create a Page that contains a
Frame and switch out the frame as each menu item is clicked.

Image file can't be opened by windows store app if the file is in the Ext4's external hard disk.

My question is described below:
I have two disks, external hard disk and removable disk. They are formatted with EXT4.
I put the same image in the disks, and use Ext2Fsd to mount the disks.
I open the file in win8, and it will default open by the windows store app : photos.
It will be success to open if the file is in the Ext4's removable disk.
It will be failed to open if the file is in the Ext4's external hard disk.
I don't know why it will be failed to open if the file is in the Ext4's external hard disk.
Does anyone have similar experiences?

Hi hatasum,
Thanks for posting!
Base on my experience, if installed Ext2Fsd, we can read the ext4 file system on windows system. But Which version of Ext2Fsd did you use? From my experience, Ext2Fsd is not spported fine about windows 8 version. Please refer to this software official
website (http://www.ext2fsd.com/ ) . I suggest you could post this issue to the Ext2Fsd discussion forum ( such as
http://sourceforge.net/p/ext2fsd/discussion/143329/thread/7f262ad0/ )for better help.
Thanks for your understanding.

How can we get a url for a "Meet Now" conference call from within the Windows Store App?

Hi,
Is it possible to get the url for the current meeting / new "Meet Now" call from within the Windows Store app?
You have the option of inviting your current Lync contacts, but I don't see a way of giving a URL to clients that would launch Lync on their device, or take them to the web app.
I can see how to get the link using the Outlook plugin, for pre-scheduled meetings. Is this link always the same and the one that should be used for an impromptu "Meet Now" meeting? It would still be good to know how to get this URL from within
the store app so I can tell clients where to get it.
Some people may be on Windows RT devices and not have access to the plugin in Outlook, and want to start a meeting at short notice and then invite others via email or pasting a link to them elsewhere.
Any help appreciated.
If I have answered your question, please mark it as the correct answer. If I have provided helpful information, please mark it as so.

Hi,
Agree with Holger, I check on my Lync Windows Store app and can't find the meeting URL as well.

Can I use the new Bing Maps control released in Feb 2015 in my windows store app?

Can I use the new Bing Maps control released in Feb 2015 in my windows store app? If not, will there be a release of the store app version that has all or most of the updates that are in the new map control for WPF/Silverlight?

The FEB 2015 release was for the WPF map control which is for desktop only. There is an existing Bing Maps SDK for Windows Store apps which has a lot more functionality than the WPF map control already. You can find this SDK here:

Which Nuget Package for Azure Service Bus can I use for Windows Store apps?

Hi,
I want to use the Azure Service Bus Topics. I have an app that needs to subscribe to the Service bus Topic. The Nuget-Package for Azure Service Bus is not applicable for Windows Store Apps (I get an error during install), thats why I used the Windows Azure
Service Bus managed for Windows Store. Unfortunatelly this API throws a Serialization Exception when I create a subscription. What can I do to use the Service bus in Windows store apps?
Thats how I try to create the subscription:
await Microsoft.WindowsAzure.Messaging.Subscription.CreateAsync(TOPIC_NAME, SUBSCRIPTION_NAME, CONNECTION_STRING);

Yes this is the one I used.
But creating a subscription with the code above throws the SerializationException mentioned in this question:

Maybe I do something wrong? Do I Need to do something before creating the subscription?
I haven't found any sample that shows how you can subscribe to a Topic and receive Messages using the restricted Api for winrt :(
Any suggestions?

Talking to C# based WinRT components that contain UI features like XAML based user controls from a JavaScript based Windows Store app

Can you create a WinRT component written in C# that consists of a library of XAML based controls and then used those controls within a Windows Store app using WinJS or via a JS Cordova plugin for Windows 8.1 & WP8.1?
Is this possible or can you only use a C# based WinRT component that contains a library of XAML controls in XAML/C# based Windows Store apps?
My understanding is that a C# based WinRT component containing non-UI code (i.e. no XAML controls) can be used in a Windows Store app written C#, VB.NET, JavaScript or VC++, but not sure if that principle would work with XAML controls
wrapped via WinRT types. In theory a XAML control is a C# class, so could work, but not sure how would JS code read that and then launch for example a page or user control from/into its HTML based UI?
Sandip Ahluwalia

Right. The code in your app is C# code, but the actual Xaml controls (like the rest of the Windows Runtime) are native code. They are projected into each language (C#, VB, C++ in the case of Windows.UI.Xaml) in a way that appears natural for that
language and the interop layer is hidden.
You could expose a Xaml control in a Windows Runtime Component written in any of C#, VB, and C++ to an app written in any of C#, VB, and C++, and the control would appear as a normal C#, VB, or C++ runtime class. This won't
work for Xaml controls in JavaScript, since the HTML window doesn't have the Xaml hosting infrastructure, but for non-UI code you can write a WRC in C#, VB, or C++ and it will appear as a normal JavaScript class to a JavaScript app.

Integrate existing VB database with windows store app

Hi
Can I integrate a VB Database Access 2007 with a Windows 2008 store app?
If yes, can I have a hyperlink that retrieves a search inside this database and goes directly to a page created by this database?
Imagine that I have an e-book with a table of contents where I have several hyperlinks for a query that shows me a specific poem and image inside a page.
Is there a sample?
thanks

Hi Rui - there are no APIs that will connect to an Access database directly within a Windows Store app. You can convert the database to SQLite, or provide a web-based interface to the Access database in order to retrieve/update the data.

Login to WebApi (MVC + WebApi) with Microsoft Account from Windows Store App

Hi
How can I access a WebApi Controller (ASP.NET MVC+WebApi) that is secured with Microsoft Account from a Windows Store App?
I have no idea how to login. I tried the LiveSDK but this gives me only access to OneDrive, Callender and so on.
Could someone please point me in the right direction.
Thanks
Guenter

Hi Guenter,
To be clear, you are using Microsoft account as login and at same time you have your own REST service for other functionalities?
Let's say if you login with LiveSDk, you should be able to get some access token, see this for more information:
Signing users in, after that use the token to access your REST service, as I understand REST service is a kind of http request, we can use HTTPClient to request data from the address.
I'm afraid there is no existing sample here but the only thing I found is HTTPClient sample:
https://code.msdn.microsoft.com/windowsapps/HttpClient-sample-55700664, you can use POST to send your token information to the server.

Run Multiple Instances of Windows Store App

We have a desktop app which we are considering porting to Windows Store. Our app allows the user to generate orders. If the user wishes to generate several orders simultaneously, they open several instances of our app.
Is it possible to run multiple instances of a Windows Store app on Windows 10?

Hi,
Another thread in MSDN forum already answered this question:

Distributing multiple versions of an app within a single Windows Store app

The company I work for creates Point Of Sale (POS) software using Software As A Service (SAAS), so we host our clients' databases. We do not force all of our clients to all be on the same version of our software; i.e. some clients are on version 3,
others v4, others v5, etc. As you would expect, the database schema for each of these versions is different, so each of these clients also use a different version of our client-side app.
We are looking at making a Windows Store app that acts as a light-weight POS app that clients can use to sell their products. The problem is, we will require having multiple versions of our Windows Store app in production; the version of the app that
the client uses must correspond to their database version. We were initially hoping to have our Windows Store app detect which version of the app the client should be using, and then automatically update itself to the correct version, but
were told on this post that it violates the Windows Store certification criteria, so that's not an option.
It has been suggested that we put multiple apps into the Store; one for each version of our software. We really don't want to do this though, as when we upgrade a client's database from one version to the next it would require that they uninstall their current
app and install the newer versions app, causing them to lose all of their custom settings. We would like the updates to remain as transparent to the end users as possible; the store clerk shouldn't need to worry about which version their database is on so
they know which app to download from the Store.
As a possible workaround, is it ok for us to package all 3 versions of our app into a single Windows Store app, and then just have the app check at runtime which version it should run? I assume that this is alright, since we will not be downloading
any other code or installing any software/apps, as was the case with our original solution that violates the certification criteria. Essentially we would just have 3 different classes and determine at run-time which classes code we should run.
I know that this solution isn't ideal, as it means our app will be 3 times larger than it needs to be, and that an update to any one of the 3 versions of our software will require an update to the Store app (so potentially users may download a new version
of the Store app, even though it doesn't have any changes for the particular code version (i.e. class) that they will use), but it's one of the best alternatives we have come up with. I just want to check that this solution doesn't also violate any certification
criteria before we go down this road.
If this is not allowed then our only other alternative might be to go with sideloading (as
I discuss on this thread) and avoid using the Windows Store all together, but we would prefer to use the Store if possible as it eliminates a lot of overhead that we would have to deal with if we use sideloading.
Any insights or suggestions that you can give are appreciated. Thanks!

Hey Mr_bigworlds, thanks for the reply. The moderator on this post actually told me that this
would be a better forum for my inquiries. I agree that there may be another forum better suited for this question (there are so many that I don't know about), but since this relates to Windows Store certification criteria, I don't think the Windows Desktop
Development forums are the place for it.
