Adding Windows Store Apps
@jks-liu posted this solution in response to issue #89:
My workaround is to create a *.cmd
file to open Windows Apps, then add this cmd file to the list [in RemoteApp Tool].
So, this question becomes how to open Windows Apps in cmd. For some apps it is easy, for e.g., you can use below command to open Windows Store:
start ms-windows-store:
But for other Windows Apps, we need another way. For e.g., I'd like to open Microsoft Todos, I can use below command (in my PC, maybe different in yours):
start shell:AppsFolder\Microsoft.Todos_8wekyb3d8bbwe!App
The key is to find the app's full name of Microsoft.Todos_8wekyb3d8bbwe
.
We can use below command to search the app's full name (Below command should be run in PowerShell):
Get-AppxPackage | Select-Object Name, PackageFullName | Where-Object { $_.Name -like "*todo*" }
Name PackageFullName
---- ---------------
Microsoft.Todos Microsoft.Todos_2.104.62421.0_x64__8wekyb3d8bbwe
Then change the search result to above pattern, delete the version string and do not forget the !App
in the end.
