If your original file is just corrupted but not lost, then please check the version number of your files. If you know MD5 value of the required files, it is the best approach to make choice Maybe the MSIX sollution is a bad idea in my case, do you think I need to relay on some other packaging sollution for my projects instead? Like Wix or similar? I have very little experience in packaging installations so I prefer a tool that is as simple as possible.Tip: How to correctly select the file you need But maybe this can be achieved by a background task as well? Like USB storage and other functionality. My main requirement for a service is not to have something running in the background, but to access functions outside the UWP sandbox. But I am afraid that a background task may be a bit too limitied for my intentions.


I have also read that background tasks may be prefered to services in msix packages. I have simply added the UWP project and the service under "Applications" in my windows Application Packaging project. Is it still not possible to include the Service project in my MSIX? I get no errors when I build my sollution.

I try to simply add those two projects to a new windows application packaging project but no matter how I do this I only manage to install the UWP app from the created bundle. I have a sollution in visual studio containing a UWP project and a Windows Service Project. If someone have succeeded in this it would be vary appriciated to hear how you did this! How should I do if I want to create a completely new MSIX bundle from scratch, containing a UWP project and a Windows Service? I can´t seem to find no information about this no matter how much i search. But I only seem to find information of how to migrate an existing installer containing a service to MSIX. I have read in some threads that MSIX will start to support also windows services from the January build.
