We are currently running Apps8, mWO on-prem. This means we cannot use the app from the Microsoft Store (as we were informed from the very beginning it is intended for Cloud only

) and instead we have to use the executable file from the TAS.

Windows changed their rules for sideloaded apps. It used to be controlled with a simple setting in Developer Mode. We are no longer able to install the .exe file from our latest images which have a version that is after 1909.

Is there an updated .exe file that accounts for this Microsoft change?

 

On the off-chance anyone else is experiencing this issue, I found this solution….

Change the options via the registry to force the option. 

Here are the settings to allow all apps:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\AppModelUnlock

Developer mode – Set the value of AllowAllTrustedApps and AllowDevelopmentWithoutDevLicense to 1
