How to export Latest Godot based project to UWP and Embed it

Godot Version

4.5

Question

Hello, I am trying to export a sample Godot project to UWP. I can find a way to do it in Godot 3.6 but could not find any way for latest Godot Engine (e.g. 4.x). Is there any way to export?

Export to UWP has been discontinued in Godot 4 as far as I know, there’s no official way to do it.

Edit: You probably shouldn’t be trying to export to UWP anyway, it’s been deprecated since 2021

Actually the project I am working currently is in UWP. So it is not possible to switch to other platform. Thats why I am trying to find alternate ways for UWP. Is there any work around to make it work in UWP?

The only alternative you have in that case is to keep using Godot 3

Thanks for your reply. I have a silly question, since I can export Godot to Windows. Is there any way I can use Windows Exported project in UWP?

I don’t know, since Microsoft officially discontinued UWP back in 2021, so I imagine a lot of things won’t work right anymore.

UWP is still allowed in the Microsoft App Store. Also, you can use Desktop App Converter - Free download and install on Windows | Microsoft Store to convert an EXE to an APPX, or MSIX Packaging Tool - Microsoft Apps to convert an EXE to an MSIX. As long as you embed the PCK, you should be fine.
