Rich activation - windows.printSupportSettingsUI doesn't work
Describe the bug
If you try to deploy a blank packaged app with extension uap12:Extension Category="windows.printSupportSettingsUI" It fails with error "The request is not supported." when you try to deploy.
But documentation indicates "Packaged apps that use the Windows App SDK support all 44 of UWP's activation kinds"
Steps to reproduce the bug
-
Visual Studio 2019, Windows App SDK C# VS2019 Templates, 22494 pre-release SDK
-
Create a new VS2019 Project - Blank App, Packaged with Windows Application Packaging Project (VVinUI 3 in Desktop)
-
To the package.appxmanifest file add uap10:SupportsMultipleInstances="true" uap12:Extension Category="windows.printSupportSettingsUI" where: xmlns:uap12="http://schemas.microsoft.com/appx/manifest/uap/windows10/12" xmlns:uap10="http://schemas.microsoft.com/appx/manifest/uap/windows10/10"
-
Build and deploy and you get this error: DEP0700: Registration of the app failed. [0x80073CF6] AppxManifest.xml(33,10): error 0x80070032: Cannot register the ca25f28d-d8d9-4d0f-8831-66556e4c475d_1.0.0.0_x64__jnbzrh1prja8t package because the following error was encountered while registering the windows.printSupportJobUI extension: The request is not supported. Try again and contact the package publisher if the problem persists.
Expected behavior
Should be able to register for that activation.

Thanks for reporting this issue! Are you still encountering the problem? If so, could you please share the latest reproduction steps and any additional details that might help us investigate further? Thanks!
The print team had taken this up several years ago and I believe it's at least most of the way resolved. I'll revisit it in a couple of months and see where things are
