Description
We have a WinUI2 app that is using the WebView2 component, we want to use the WebView2 Fixed Runtime and we also want to upload the app to the Microsoft store. We are having a few problems with this:
- The first problem is that we don't know if it is possible to package de WebView2 Fixed Runtime with our app, so we can upload only one package to the store. At the moment we "solve" this by putting all the fixed runtime into the asset folder of the project.
Is this the correct way to do it?
If not, is any documentation on how to do it properly?
- With this temporal solution we are having trouble with the package in the store. We uploaded it to the store but we have some errors with some
dlls. The store flags a bunch of.dlland throws errors, for example::API PathFindNextComponentW in shlwapi.dll is not supported for this application type. onnxruntime.dll calls this API..
Is there a way to solve this?
The documentation page about distribution doesn't say anything about uploading all to the store.
Thanks!

Research direction
Start with the WebView2 distribution documentation linked in the issue, then inspect how the Fixed Runtime is placed in the app's asset folder. Review the Microsoft Store validation errors, including the onnxruntime.dll and shlwapi.dll example. Done means documenting whether this packaging approach is supported and how the reported Store errors should be handled.
