Use a WPF program to launch a UWP program

Due to various reasons, I need to use a WPF program to launch a UWP program. Let’s summarize it below and give myself a backup.

The key to starting a UWP program is protocol startup

Add a protocol to our UWP application, like this:

Then use the protocol There are several ways to launch the UWP:

1. Use UWP's Launcher API

// Create the URI to launch from a string.
var uri = new Uri("protocolname :");

// Launch the URI.
bool success = await Windows.System.Launcher.LaunchUriAsync(uri);

This involves a question: How to do it in WPF Using UWP's API, you can refer to the link:

2. Use PackageManager, which is also UWP's API

// var Manager = New PackageManager ();
// var P = Manager. FindPackagesForUser("", PackageId);
//var ls = await p.ToList()[0].GetAppListEntriesAsync();
//foreach (var item in ls)
//{
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                 .

The PackageId is the package family name (PackageFamilyName)

3. Use Process.Start(new ProcessStartInfo("protocolname:"));

4. Use the command line

like:>start myapplication:protocol-parameter, refer to Accepting Parameters

The link also introduces another way: start activation (command line parameters are not supported), which will not be discussed here. Repeat.

After writing WPF for several months, I found that I had forgotten all the UWP stuff. Hey, such a weakling!
