Deploy Azure VM with MSIX App Attach Tools

This deployment will create a VM from the Microsoft Gallery and configure and install software for use when creating MSIX App attach images.

  • MSIX App Attach Store App
  • MSIX Manager command line tool
  • PSFTooling App
  • Disables Plug and Play service (prevents new disk pop-up when mounting VHDs)
  • Creates C:\MSIX directory with apps and script to convert MSIX to VHD
  • Creates a self-signed certificate and places it within the "Trusted People Store" for signing packages (Consider a Certificate from a Certificate Authority for Production Use)

Pre-requisites

  • Azure Tenant and Subscription
  • Resource Group
  • VNet and Subnet
