I took over developing of winrt mobile app. I have one question, app has two certificates. "appName_StoreKey.pfx" and "appName_TemporaryKey.pfx". I cen easly create "appName_TemporaryKey.pfx" from visual studio. Where can I create "appName_StoreKey.pfx"? It is created during creating app packages to the store?
It's created when you associate the project to a store app entity.

From Microsoft Store if we select an app to install, how to identify whether the app is built on win 8/8.1/10?
Like how to know from seeing the app in store whether it is a metro app or UWP app?
I'm writing a Windows 8.1 universal App (WinRT).
I need to integrate with Facebook to track App Events.
I made the same thing in an Android App using the AppEventsLogger.
I added the "Facebook SDK for .NET" to my project using NuGet, but I cannot find any way to track the App Events (like activateApp, deactivateApp, logEvent)
Are these functionalities I need included in the SDK I'm using?
Can I track these events in any other way in a WinRT Application?
Thank you all.
How should I navigate between pages in a "Windows Store Universal App" when my views are separated from the shared project?
I implemented the same class of navigation of the templates...
To be able to access a class, in let's say your Windows Phone project, from the shared project, the class must be available in all other projects as well. So, create a Products in the Windows projects as well and then you'll be able to navigate to it.
I'm new to Windows Phone 8 development. I'm coming from an ASP.NET Web Forms background where settings are stored in Web.Config. As some of you know, the Web.Config settings are hierarchical in nature where values are overridden depending on their location (root Web.config, machine.config, app level Web.config)
I am creating an app that calls into a third party API. The third party API uses OAuth which requires personal key information. I plan on open sourcing the code so I don't want to expose those keys.
If this was ASP.NET, I'd store the keys in a Web.config file outside of the app. This way, I'd be safe to publish my app to the public.
How would I achieve the same with a Windows Phone 8 app?
App.config functionality does not exist in Silverlight and WP apps. You can use IsolatedStorageSettings.ApplicationSettings to save/receive settings.
If you still want to use something similar to App.config then you can check this link for a similar functionality implementation.
I'd like to start work on a Windows Store App client for Spotify, using LibSpotify. However, it seems that I'm unable to use the libspotify dll from inside a Metro app, presumably because it uses parts of the win32 api that are off-limits to the Metro Sandbox.
Loading in my own simple test dll using LoadPackagedLibrary works ok, but loading in libspotify gives error 1114 - ERROR_DLL_INIT_FAILED.
Is there any hope for me?
Thanks
Tom
If you are trying to create a Metro-Style-App - you have no hope until Spotify releases an updated library or someone reverse engineers their library to make it work in WinRT.
If you want to create a Metro style app that is not WinRT - based - there are WPF libraries that let you theme your application to look Metro, but you won't be able to sell it in Windows Store unless you work for Spotify and get into a deal with Microsoft.
You can only use the WinRT library in Windows 8 Metro Apps, not Win32.
