What's the Problem?

Good afternoon guys,

Do you have option to install this away from Ms Store, as users are not able to access Ms Store.

Solution/Idea

stand alone installer would be great.

Alternatives

Look forward to hearing from you.

You can use WinGet, Chocolatey or Manual installation 😀

@rlm96 winget actually uses msstore if not added explictly into packages:

Failed to install or update Microsoft Store package because Microsoft Store client is blocked by policy

rlm96 commented 2 years ago

@alkuzad what about Chocolatey or Manual installation?

Stan-C421 commented 2 years ago

A portable version should made available in my case and for my fellow colleagues. We can't use Microsoft Store due to policies, nor install on our machines.

We require the same.

I don't use choco as Scoop/WinGet are superior and automatically up-to-date.

+1 for a portable version

Does a manual install require compiling the source, or can the bundle file be used?

rlm96 commented 2 years ago

@veler is there any way we can add a .msi to the release so people can install it without compile? That way I could use the same .msi to update the Chocolatey repository

Unfortunately it's impossible at the moment: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/56512666/how-to-create-exe-msi-for-uwp-application

Requests for a portable version should be made in a separate issue. With some workarounds, it might be possible to create a non-Store installer, but there is no way to make a portable version.

See also issue 286 #286 The standalone (manual) installer is not working for me.

veler commented 2 years ago

Hello, Thanks to @rlm96 , DevToys is now available on Chocolatey. This doesn't require to pass through the Microsoft Store. Would you be able to give it a try and see if the app can be installed this way on your machine, please? :)

See: https://github.com/veler/DevToys#chocolatey

Thank you !

See commment on issue #286 by @Atrejoe . Chocolatey is giving more details, but still failing.

tmalaher-telus commented 2 years ago

@veler Still failing. Just tried 1.0.7.0neutral._j80j2txgjg9dj msixbundle, and got: App Installer failed to install package dependencies. Ask the developer for package.
