MSIX

Full Functional
The software was packaged on Windows 10 21H2 using Microsoft MSIX Packaging Tool 1.2022.512 with the PSF using TMEditX. Only the PSfLauncher is needed, because there are both 32 and 64-bit exes with the same name that need a shortcut. The application attempts to install an FTA on .RData with a shell integration verb command using the same 'open' verb to start the 32 and 64 bit RGui.exe, one on .rdata and other on .RData. MSIX cannot handle this and you must choose one or the other, but usually this means the 64 bit version.

Repackaging Tips

The application installs into program files.
There are two shortcuts installed, one for 32-bit and one for 64-bit. They both point to an exe named RGui.exe in different folders.
There is a new FTA (.RData) that has a shell integration verb command.
There are no shell extensions, protocol handlers, or services.
