Summary of the new document or enhancement

Description of what changed

This change removes most of the limitations for an APPX package. However, you still cannot write to $PSHOME so the MS Store instance of PowerShell cannot be the target for a remote session. Users need to be on Windows 10 version 1903 or higher.

See PowerShell/PowerShell#9278 for a discussion of issues before the fix.

These issues would apply to:

  • PS 7.2 running on builds older than 1903
  • The PS 7.1 MS Store app running on any version
