Facing same issue after upgrading to 1.1.1.

[huichen123]

hmm, this fell off the radar completely. @BarcodeResource do you still have this issue?

[IstvanKor]

Same issue here. Tried with 1.1.1 and 1.1.2. App Installer version: 1.17.11601.0

[huichen123]

works for me. @MikeHillberg @DrusTheAxe, did you hear anything like this?

[germanfortiz]

I'm still facing this error in 1.1.2 (0x8000FFFF). Is there anything I can do to help to solve this? Log something, try without signing...

[germanfortiz]

Well, now it is working. What happened:

• I tried to install the x86 version of the package
• In the process, the Microsoft Store showed a popup saying the WindowsAppRuntime.1.1 was just installed
• The x86 version of my package installed fine.
• Then I unistalled the x86 version and installed the x64 version, and the it installed fine.

Is it possible that I had the WindowsAppRuntime.1.1 not installed or outdated?

I am facing the same issue on windows 10. Basically I created a UWP app - installed it and then migrated to sdk, upgraded the version and then trying to install it. I get exactly issue with no logs of what is going wrong. huichen123 Can you let me know why this could happen?
