The solution was to restart the machine and try again earlier. Now this is fixed with the release of new updates for windows 10.


1703 fixed in 2018.10 - KB4462939
1709 fixed in 2018.10 - KB4462932
1803 fixed in 2018.10 - KB4462933

Build your first MSIX Package using DAC

Microsoft is building up a MSIX Packaging Tool which we are expecting to be released pretty soon. Till then how to create a MSIX package? It's very easy. If you have used Desktop App Converter tool to create .appx package earlier then you are ready to create MSIX.

The steps to create MSIX are pretty same like how we create .appx using DAC. You can follow the below link to create your first MSIX package.
