Version 7.4 is now available for TMEditX Editor and TMEditX Tools. Release information follows.
TMEditX Editor Release notes:
TMEditX is the licensed and so much more capable tool for fixing up MSIX packages; better than PsfTooling since it doesn’t have to depend on the Microsoft MSIX Packaging Tool to create the final package. [Download_page]
- PSF v2026.10.13. This includes memory fixes and MfrFixup support for the short form of the user’s Temp folder.
- Feature: Added a configuration option, and command line override, to control the package dependency WindowsAppRuntime. Microsoft releases this dependency as a framework package that includes the major/minor version as part of the package name. The Microsoft MSIX Packaging Tool routinely adds version 1.4 as a dependenncy. The new option allows three settings: Do nothing (the default), Replace with the latest version, and Remove if unneeded. In most cases it is unneeded as adding the PSF removes the shortcut entry that caused the need for the dependency.
- Feature: Added a configuration option to make UpdateInUse (deferred) fixup as an automatic recommended fixup or an optional one. Previously it was optional and the default is optional. This entry in the AppXManifest means that if a deployment tool tries to upgrade the package, and the package is in use, defer the upgrade until the package is no longer in use.
- Change: Although we detect uiAccess in app manifest files and add the appropriate entries into the AppXManifest file, Microsoft has not enabled this feature in the OS and, at this point, seems unlikely to ever do so. This change adds this information into the “Unfixable and Informational” list instead.
- Fix: Fix for manual editing of the AppXManifest when WIn32Dependencies is present.
- Fix: Fix for manual editing of the AppXManifest when Com5:InProcessServer is present.
- Fix: If detecting a firewall rule in the app, but we cannot add this type of rule due to AppXManifest schema limitations, make sure the fix button is disabled.
