Out-of-the-Box Support to Build MSIX Packages

Fresh, Modern Designer for Installations
Installations are the first interaction with a software product, making an engaging and simple-to-use interface incredibly important. The new release also offers a fresh and modern designer interface, making it easier for developers to build a smooth customer experience. Other enhancements include options for end users to decide whether to download a new update or stay with an older version, as well as setting up a "force the update."
