Check for installed versions of the Windows App SDK runtime
To check which versions of the Windows App SDK runtime are installed on your development computer, open a PowerShell window and run one of the following commands.
# For 1.0 and 1.0 Preview releases and later
get-appxpackage *appruntime*
# For shorter output displaying only PackageFullName
(get-appxpackage micro*win*appruntime*).packagefullname
# For 1.0 Experimental
get-appxpackage *WindowsAppSDK*
# For version 0.8
get-appxpackage *reunion*
You should see output similar to the following, which will include the x64
, x86
, or Arm64
versions of the Framework package, Dynamic Dependency Lifetime Manager (DDLM) package, Main package, and Singleton package, depending on your computer and Windows App SDK version.
