Electron-builder: runFullTrust warning when submitting to Microsoft Store

Created on 6 Sep 2018  路  7Comments  路  Source: electron-userland/electron-builder


  • Version: 19.19.1

  • Target: appx

I am trying to submit the app to Microsoft Store, but after verification process (at the Store) runFullTrust warning appears.

I can submit app, but I need to approve that runFullTrust capability is necessary for my app.

From the Store:
Restricted capabilities

We detected the use of one or more restricted capabilities in your Package.appxmanifest file. You must request approval to use restricted capabilities by providing more information below. Please include as much detail as possible. Learn more

If you don't need to declare these capabilities or added them in error, you can remove them from your Package.appxmanifest file and then upload the updated package(s).

The following restricted capabilities require approval before you can use them in your app: runFullTrust

Why do you need the runFullTrust capability, and how will it be used in your product?*

I wrote following comment:
It is introduced in accordance with documentation
Package an app manually (Desktop Bridge)
links: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/uwp/porting/desktop-to-uwp-manual-conversion

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/uwp/porting/desktop-to-uwp-manual-conversion#capabilities

For desktop apps that you package by using the desktop bridge, you'll have to add the runFullTrust capability.



Is it correct?
Do I need to remove the runFullTrust capability (How can I do it?)?

I also had this warning. As reason, I mentioned that is an Electron app. And I submitted it. After one week, I received an e-mail from Microsoft, asking me to approve an agreement from a link. And to reply at the e-mail when done. Then, after two days, was finally on the store.

For electron apps on Windows, that鈥檚 normal and correct. As reason, just mention that is an Electron app.

@evalbahs I had the same on my submission. Did you manage to successfully submit the app onto the store?

@mvbn No worries. Fingers crossed with mine then.

@vanejung Good luck!

My apologies for the slow reply. Yes, I did manage to successfully submit the app onto the store. I just mentioned that is an Electron app.

@evalbahs Crap, I totally forgot about this ticket.. Thanks for letting me know. My app has successfully gone through too.

@mvbn Thank you for your help earlier as well!
