Assist with locating dependencies for offline installation #2318

Open denelon opened 2 years ago

denelon commented 2 years ago

Description of the new feature / enhancement

I'd like to have a way to download the Windows Package Manager (App Installer) and the other dependencies to support offline installation.

Proposed technical implementation details

Update documentation and provide links as necessary.

jedieaston commented 2 years ago

I don't know if this is what spurns this issue, but the offline package for Desktop Bridge (from here) is too old to work with the latest winget release candidate. As such we can't use the latest RC in Windows Sandbox, at least without finding the libraries from another unofficial source.

the offline package for Desktop Bridge (from here)

I have asked that they update these links.

JohnMcPMS commented 2 years ago

And they appear to be up to date now.

@JohnMcPMS, I looked at the AppXManifest.xml of AppInstaller_X64.msix in the msixbundle from latest stable release and it has an additional dependency on package Microsoft.UI.Xaml.2.7. Does that need to be pre-installed in addition to Microsoft.VCLibs.140.00.UWPDesktop?

Yes, it does. We’ve been working around it by downloading the UI Xaml NuGet package which has the appx package inside of it.

I made an issue to document how to get UI Xaml installed if you can’t get access to the store: https://github.com/microsoft/winget-cli/issues/1861
