Examples

        {
            // Attempt restart, with arguments.
            AppRestartFailureReason result = await App.RequestRestartForUserAsync(
                user, "-fastInit -mainMenu");

            // Restart request denied, tell the user to restart manually.
            if (result== AppRestartFailureReason.InvalidUser)
            {
                SendToast(string.Format("Could not restart as user {0} - please manually restart.", user));
            }
        }
    }
}

Remarks

  • The app must be visible and foreground when it calls this API.
  • If the restart fails, but the user subsequently launches the app manually, the app will launch normally and no restart arguments will be passed.
  • If the app wasn't launched in the normal way, but was launched by a share contract, file picker, app-service, and so on, the app should not call this API because the user will not expect the resulting behavior.
  • The app is responsible for ensuring the validity of the User object. The activation will fail if there is policy in place which prevents that user from executing the app.
  • The app should not request an Extended Execution session after it has called this API because that will result in a poor user experience.
  • If the app has any in-process background tasks running when it calls this API, those tasks will be cancelled in the normal way. Out-of-process background tasks will not be affected.
  • When the app is restarted, LaunchActivatedEventArgs.PreviousExecutionState will have the value Terminated so that the app can distinguish between a resume and a restart.
