Run a program included in a MSIX package from the package program entry point.

Hello.

I've created an MSIX package that contains two programs: P1.EXE and P2.EXE.

P1.EXE is the application entry point and it works ok.

At some point of P1.EXE execution, P1.EXE runs P2.EXE.

This works ok if application capabilities is defined as "Full Trust" but I don't want to have such a global access.

Please help me to stablish the proper 'applicaction capabilities' combination than will allow P1.EXE to run P2.EXE

Thanks in advance.

  • Let's make sure you are not confusing "FullTrust" with things like administrator privileges.  FullTrust in a package means it gets more privileges within the container than PartialTrust (used for UWP for example).  It is still less than the permissions that a standard user would have running the native programs.
