There's a few details that you're going to need. Package Identifier, Package Version, Package Name, Publisher, Installer Type & more.

Create your package manifest

If you want to submit a software package to the Windows Package Manager repository, start by creating a package manifest.

Akama Aka•11mo ago

Okay thanks The InstallerUrl is it the whole url with the program name or just the path? so like https://package.domain.com/name/distro/version/program.exe

Azrael•11mo ago

With the executable. Like that.

Akama Aka•11mo ago

Okay thanks That mmoment you have to learn what a portable project is <:AYS_WobblesLaugh:845570950212878366>

Azrael•11mo ago

If you're using Winget your application is not portable.

Akama Aka•11mo ago

Okay Is there something I need to aware with before I Publish it?

Azrael•11mo ago

No.

Akama Aka•11mo ago

Then you did something wrong.

Akama Aka•11mo ago

@Azrael I have these files but it still says that files are missing. Do you know any fixes?

Azrael•11mo ago

Add version, installer and defaultLocale and redo it.

Akama Aka•11mo ago
