Automated PSF config generation

  • Article

This article talks about the integration of adding Package Support Framework (PSF) fixups with the MSIX Packaging Tool. This integration aims to simplify applying PSF fixups by automating the PSF config.json file generation, eliminating the need for manual configuration and reducing the potential for errors.

To apply known fixups,

  1. Launch the MSIX Packaging Tool, select to Package Editor and navigate to the PSF Fixups tab.

  2. Select the Application ID as present in the manifest. The Executable path will be populated automatically.

  3. Select the Fixup that you want to apply and fill all the mandatory parameters in the right pane.

  4. You can review the configuration applied by clicking on Preview config.json and then click on Save to automatically apply the fixups.
