We just presented the application in the Windows 8 store (metro style application) and received an error message:
XXX takes a dependency on Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Package framework but is missing the framework dependency declaration in the manifest.
We had a good application in the version, but it was not accepted as a package, so we had to port our application as RTM for Windows. During this, we had the following entry in the manifest:
<Dependencies> <PackageDependency Name="Microsoft.VCLibs.110" MinVersion="11.0.0.0" /> </Dependencies>
If we save this, we will get the following error when creating the application.
Error : DEP0700 : Registration of the app failed. Windows cannot install package 5d6f272d-c915-4de1-a9d6-c0c08d63ab94 because this package depends on another package that could not be found. This package requires minimum version 11.0.50727.1 of framework Microsoft.VCLibs.110 published by any publisher to install. Provide the framework along with this package. (0x80073cf3) Test_App1
So, we deleted it and sent it to the application, it just failed and gave the following error.
XXXX takes a dependency on Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Package framework but is missing the framework dependency declaration in the manifest.
We need to save this package in the manifest, but not do it.
