Hello,
I want to add an optional package for my main app and I hope users can't remove this optional package by themselves.
Currently I know users can remove optional packages via powershell/dism & windows settings page. It may be hard to reject powershell/dism, so I just want to know how to hide optional package on windows settings page (I tried add AppEntryList="none" in package.manifest but it didn't work), thanks.
