问题 Can anyone give me a hint how I can manually define a msix package? My application has no msi package (yet), so I can’t simply convert it.

问题 I'm trying to move to MSIX to install our application, which is currently deployed to our customers via a ClickOnce installation which requires updating on startup, if there is an update.
