If I want to let someone preload my Store App package to Windows 10 image using DISM /Add-ProvisionedAppxPackages command, how can I generate the XML license file for the /LicensePath switch?

Hi Subramanian, Sethuramalingam,

1. Prepare a folder containing:

• MyApp.appx (or .msixbundle)
• dependency packages (vclibs, framework packages)
• license.xml (provided by Store/Partner center)

2. Provision online (example PowerShell):

Add-AppxProvisionedPackage -Online -FolderPath "C:\Provision\MyApp"

or

Add-AppxProvisionedPackage -Online -PackagePath C:\Provision\MyApp\MyApp.appx -DependencyPackagePath C:\Provision\MyApp\dep1.appx -LicensePath C:\Provision\MyApp\license.xml

3. For offline images with DISM, the same folder should be used with the DISM -FolderPath option (or pass -LicensePath to DISM). The license file must be present in the folder or correctly referenced.
4. If DISM complains 0xc1570103 (“license file not found”), confirm the license.xml is in the folder you passed and that you used the correct parameter. If you don’t have the license and the app closes on first run, you likely need to obtain the offline-license package from the Store for Business / Partner Center; sideloading while online may let users run the app but won’t help for pre-provisioned offline images.
