问题
I am having this error in Visual Studio 2015 when try to create app package for the store for a windows universal applicaiton:
Manifest references file 'MyAppName.dll' which is not part of the payload.
The error is in the ...\..MyAppSourcePath..\Package.appxmanifest file.
This is somehow related Manifest references file 'Bing.Maps.dll' which is not part of the payload but in my case the error shows up only when build package for the store and is related to the MyAppName.dll (where MyAppName is the name of the name of my application).
Another related question in MSDN: https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/f137091e-f550-4eab-b7e2-418149b97d40/error-appx0703-manifest-references-file-myappnamedll-which-is-not-part-of-the-payload?forum=windowsstore

It turns out this is known issue in Windows 10 SDK (Update 1.1). Reference: https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/73f2d56d-9e8e-4b57-bcfa-0a972dfd75d7/update-11-generating-store-associated-package-fails-for-a-uwp-application-with-a-winrt-component?forum=Win10SDKToolsIssues
To workaround this issue, add the below ItemGroup in your project file and regenerate the package.
<ItemGroup>
<AppxSystemBinary Include="<Assembly Mentioned in the error>" />
</ItemGroup>
For example, if the assembly name is MyAppName.dll, include:
<ItemGroup>
<AppxSystemBinary Include="MyAppName.dll" />
</ItemGroup>
This ItemGroup can be expanded if the error still occurs for other assemblies, for example:
<ItemGroup>
<AppxSystemBinary Include="MyAppName.dll" />
<AppxSystemBinary Include="OtherAssembly.dll" />
</ItemGroup>

I had a hell of a time trying to work this out and it's a slightly different issue to what the OP posted but hopefully this will help someone else out because I couldn't find the answer on StackOverflow and finally found it here: https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/Sharepoint/en-US/65bc5999-662c-4eda-9967-e1b3031db8c4/error-appx0703-error-manifest-references-file-assetssplashscreenpng-which-is-not-part-of-the?forum=wpdevelop after many hours of mucking around and trying different things.
My error was the same except the file was for the various store and tile image files thus: "Manifest references file 'Assets\Store\StoreLogo.png' which is not part of the payload."
All the files did exist but turned out I was running Visual Studio on a VM using Parallels and the project opened through shared folders and using a UNC path. Ran the project from a mapped drive and it builds all good.
I do realise now that referencing UNC paths using a VM in Parallels Desktop has caused a few issues for me in the past. So just need to keep in mind that things should be run via a mapped drive instead to avoid this.
