[BUG] Classic package doesn't have file association

Open XueChuanxu opened this issue 1 year ago • 4 comments

What happened?

image I am trying to generate package for Windows store. In the above image, left is classic package appxmanifest, right is modern package appxmanifest. Classic package generated from PWA builder does not have file association. The extension is not added into appxmanifest. This will cause some old windows users could not double click open a dwg when they are using a classic package app downloaded from Windows Store.

How do we reproduce the behavior?

  1. Go to https://www.pwabuilder.com/reportcard?site=https://web.autocad.com/?pwa-mode=true
  2. Generate a package for Windows Store
  3. Install Classic package app
  4. There is no file association for classic package app

What do you expect to happen?

Could you please help add FileTypeAssociation extension for classic package?

What environment were you using?

OS: Windows 11

Hi @jgw96, we are publishing PWA app soon. May I know if there is any update on this issue? Thanks!

Seems like we could copy the FileTypeAssociation items from the modern package to the classic package. That seems simple enough.
