Downloads for the Windows App SDK

Note

The Windows App SDK Visual Studio Extensions (VSIX) are no longer distributed as a separate download. They are available in the Visual Studio Marketplace inside Visual Studio.

Version 1.6.3 (1.6.241114003)

This is a servicing release of the Windows App SDK that includes critical bug fixes for the 1.6 release.

  • Fixed an issue where reading the AppWindow.ExtendsContentIntoTitleBar property turns on custom titlebar rendering. For more info, see GitHub issue #9988.
  • Fixed a potential crash during destruction of a TextBox/RichEditBox. For more info, see GitHub issue #9070.
  • Fixed an issue where PackageDeploymentManager.IsPackageReadyOrNewerAvailable() failed. For more info, see GitHub issue #4817.
  • Fixed an issue where ScrollViewer would leak.
  • Added detection for a rare scenario where the app stops rendering and never recovers.
  • Fixed an issue where PackageDeploymentManager.RegisterPackageSetAsync() requires URI when it should be optional to register by PackageFamilyName.
  • Fixed an issue that prevented apps from being installed or uninstalled. For more info, see GitHub issue #4881.

This release includes the following new APIs which allow for providers of Widgets to incorporate web content in their Widgets:

Microsoft.Windows.Widgets.Providers 
  IWidgetManager2 
  IWidgetProviderMessage 
  IWidgetResourceProvider 
  WidgetManager 
     SendMessageToContent 

  WidgetMessageReceivedArgs 
  WidgetResourceRequest 
  WidgetResourceRequestedArgs 
  WidgetResourceResponse

Version 1.6.1 (1.6.240923002)

This is a servicing release of the Windows App SDK that includes critical bug fixes for the 1.6 release.

  • Fixed a crash when using FocusVisualKind.Reveal(). For more info, see GitHub issue #9966.
  • Fixed noisy C++ exceptions from Bcp47Langs.dll. For more info, see GitHub issue #4691. Note that this fix removes the synchronization with Windows.Globalization.ApplicationLanguages.PrimaryLanguageOverride.
  • Fixed an issue where an extra Unloaded event was raised immediately after showing a ContentDialog. For more info, see GitHub issue #8402.
  • Fixed an issue where a CommandBar menu might have incorrectly opened up even when there was room for it to open down.
  • Fixed some issues where input to InputNonClientPointerSource regions was not handled correctly when the top-level window was running in right-to-left mode.
  • Fixed the compile-time check for the Windows SDK framework version to handle the slightly different framework name used for .NET 9.

Version 1.6

The following sections describe new and updated features and known issues for version 1.6.

In an existing Windows App SDK 1.5 app, you can update your Nuget package to 1.6.240829007 (see the Update a package section in Install and manage packages in Visual Studio using the NuGet Package Manager).

For the updated runtime and MSIX, see Downloads for the Windows App SDK.

Required project changes for 1.6

C++ project changes

When updating a C++ project to 1.6, you'll need to add a project reference to the Microsoft.Web.WebView2 package. If you update via NuGet Package Manager in Visual Studio, this dependency will be added for you.

C# project changes

In 1.6, Windows App SDK managed apps require Microsoft.Windows.SDK.NET.Ref *.*.*.38 or later, which can be specified via WindowsSdkPackageVersion in your csproj file. For example:

<Project Sdk="Microsoft.NET.Sdk">
   <PropertyGroup>
       <OutputType>WinExe</OutputType>
       <TargetFramework>net8.0-windows10.0.22621.0</TargetFramework>
       <TargetPlatformMinVersion>10.0.17763.0</TargetPlatformMinVersion>
       <WindowsSdkPackageVersion>10.0.22621.38</WindowsSdkPackageVersion>
   <PropertyGroup>
   ...

In addition, Windows App SDK managed apps should update to Microsoft.Windows.CsWinRT 2.1.1 (or later).

Note

These manual references will no longer be needed once the next .NET SDK servicing update is released.

Native AOT support

Native AOT support in 1.6

The .NET PublishAot project property is now supported for native Ahead-Of-Time compilation. For details on Native AOT, see Native AOT Deployment. Because AOT builds on Trimming support, much of the following trimming-related guidance applies to AOT as well.

For PublishAot support and trimming support, in addition to the C# project changes described in the previous section you'll also need a package reference to Microsoft.Windows.CsWinRT 2.1.1 (or later) to enable the source generator from that package until the next .NET SDK servicing update is released when it will no longer be required.

For more info, see the CsWinRT Trimming / AOT support doc and the CsWinRT 2.1.1 Release Notes.

Because the Windows App SDK invokes publishing targets when F5 deploying, we recommend enabling PublishAot at NuGet restore time by adding this to your csproj file:

<PublishAot>true</PublishAot>

Resolving AOT Issues

In this release, the developer is responsible for ensuring that all types are properly rooted to avoid trimming (such as with reflection-based {Binding} targets). Later releases will enhance both C#/WinRT and the XAML Compiler to automate rooting where possible, alert developers to trimming risks, and provide mechanisms to resolve.

Partial Classes

C#/WinRT also includes PublishAot support in version 2.1.1. To enable a class for AOT publishing with C#/WinRT, it must first be marked partial. This allows the C#/WinRT AOT source analyzer to attribute the classes for static analysis. Only classes (which contain methods, the targets of trimming) require this attribute.

Unsafe Code Error

The CsWinRT source generator might generate code that makes use of unsafe. If you hit such an error during compilation or a diagnostic warning for it (CS0227 for "Unsafe code may only appear if compiling with /unsafe"), you should set EnableUnsafeBlocks to true. For more info, see GitHub issue CsWinRT #1721.

WebView2 not yet AOT compatible

The WebView2 projections in Microsoft.Web.WebView2 package version 1.0.2651.64 are not yet AOT compatible. This will be fixed in an upcoming release of the Microsoft.Web.WebView2 package, which you can then reference in your project.

Reflection-Free Techniques

To enable AOT compatibility, reflection-based techniques should be replaced with statically typed serialization, AppContext.BaseDirectory, typeof(), etc. For details, see Introduction to trim warnings.

Rooting Types

Until full support for {Binding} is implemented, types may be preserved from trimming as follows:

Given project P consuming assembly A with type T in namespace N, which is only dynamically referenced (so normally trimmed), T can be preserved via:

P.csproj:

<ItemGroup>
    <TrimmerRootDescriptor Include="ILLink.Descriptors.xml" />
</ItemGroup>

ILLink.Descriptors.xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<linker>
    <assembly fullname="A">
        <type fullname="N.T" preserve="all" />
    </assembly>
</linker>

For complete root descriptor XML expression syntax, see Root Descriptors.

Note

Dependency packages that have not yet adopted AOT support may exhibit runtime issues.

Decoupled WebView2 versioning

The Windows App SDK now consumes the Edge WebView2 SDK as a NuGet reference rather than embedding a hardcoded version of the Edge WebView2 SDK. The new model allows apps to choose a newer version of the Microsoft.Web.WebView2 package instead of being limited to the version with which the Windows App SDK was built. The new model also allows apps to reference NuGet packages which also reference the Edge WebView2 SDK. For more info, see GitHub issue #5689.

New Package Deployment APIs

The Package Management API has received several enhancements including Is*ReadyOrNewerAvailable*(), EnsureReadyOptions.RegisterNewerIfAvailable, Is*Provisioned*(), IsPackageRegistrationPending(), and several bug fixes. See PackageManagement.md and Pull Request #4453 for more details.

Improved TabView tab tear-out

Improved TabView tear-out in 1.6

TabView supports a new CanTearOutTabs mode which provides an enhanced experience for dragging tabs and dragging out to a new window. When this new option is enabled, tab dragging is very much like the tab drag experience in Edge and Chrome where a new window is immediately created during the drag, allowing the user to drag it to the edge of the screen to maximize or snap the window in one smooth motion. This implementation also doesn't use drag-and-drop APIs, so it isn't impacted by any limitations in those APIs. Notably, tab tear-out is supported in processes running elevated as Administrator.

Other notable changes

  • Added a new ColorHelper.ToDisplayName() API, filling that gap from UWP.
  • Added a new Microsoft.Windows.Globalization.ApplicationLanguages class, which notably includes a new PrimaryLanguageOverride feature. For more info, see GitHub issue #4523.
  • Unsealed ItemsWrapGrid. This should be a backward-compatible change.
  • PipsPager supports a new mode where it can wrap between the first and last items.

New PipsPager wrapping mode in 1.6

  • RatingControl is now more customizable, by moving some hard-coded style properties to theme resources. This allows apps to override these values to better customize the appearance of RatingControl.
New RatingControl customization in 1.6
  • WinUI 3 has changed to the typographic model for font selection rather than the legacy weight/stretch/style model. The typographic model is required for some newer fonts, including Segoe UI Variable, and enables enhanced font capabilities. Some older fonts which rely on the weight/stretch/style model for selection may not be found with the typographic model.

Known Issues

  • If the debugger is set to break on all C++ exceptions, it will break on some noisy exceptions on start-up in the BCP47 (Windows Globalization) code. For more info, see GitHub issue #4691.
  • Component library packages which reference the WinAppSDK 1.6 package will not correctly get the referenced WebView2 package contents. For more info, see WebView2Feedback #4743. A workaround is to add a direct reference to the Microsoft.Web.WebView2 package where needed.
  • Apps compiled with Native AOT might sometimes experience a hanging issue after page navigation due to a race condition in the .NET runtime's GC thread. For more info, see .NET issue #104582.
  • The initial release of 1.6.0 introduced an issue with one of our dependencies that we expect will be resolved in an upcoming release of the .NET SDK. If you experience an error with the version of your Microsoft.Windows.SDK.NET reference, you’ll need to explicitly reference the version of the .NET SDK that is specified by your error message. For example, if the error says you need version 10.0.19041.38, add the following to your .csproj file:
    • <WindowsSdkPackageVersion>10.0.19041.38</WindowsSdkPackageVersion>.
