I am trying to make an appx file for the store using Desktop App Converter.
In my command I put the -PackageName
from the Package/Identity/Name from the Microsoft store dashboard.
But Desktop App Converter stops with:
DesktopAppConverter : error 'E_MANIFEST_SET_PROPERTY_FAILED': Property 'Package.Identity.Name' in AppxManifest.xml could not be set to the value '123MyApps.MyAppsproject' given for parameter -'PackageName'. Please visit: 'https://aka.ms/idname' for more info on the Data type requirements for the property. At line:1 char:1 + &'C:\Program Files\WindowsApps\Microsoft.DesktopAppConverter_1.0.9.0_ ... + ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + CategoryInfo : NotSpecified: (:) [Write-Error], WriteErrorException + FullyQualifiedErrorId : Microsoft.PowerShell.Commands.WriteErrorException,DesktopAppConverter.ps1
If I use the display name eg. "MyApps", it works. But when I submit it to the store I get:
Invalid package identity name: MyApps (expected: 1234MyApps.MyApps)
