Not yet. I am working on a rewrite of the core modules to support async code execution. Will look into this as soon I released the the next major update.

hey, really important, find a workaround, to open all UWP-Apps,
1: search on windows (window key + name app)
2. right click on the app icon> add to start
3: drag the app icon to the desktop
4 (optional): move the link to some folder if you prefer not to have such icons on your desktop

The problem is that there is no way (at least none which I know of) to get all installed uwp apps. But you can set up a custom command to start a UWP app.

For example: I installed the official Instagram app from the Microsoft Store and I set up this custom command:

{
    "name": "Instagram",
    "executionArgument": "!start instagram:"
}

The only thing you have to do is to get the correct start parameter for your UWP app. In my case ist was instagram:.

I have used before the launcher "Keypirinha" and they have a plugin to add all Windows UWP apps.
The plugin is open source and also on Github:
https://github.com/ueffel/Keypirinha-WindowsApps

Can you have a look how they do this ?

I found a way to get all installed apps with a PowerShell command.

Get-AppxPackage

https://stackoverflow.com/a/37086764/7441041

and to run the app:

start shell:AppsFolder\{PackageFamilyName}!App

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/46893260/how-to-start-a-universal-windows-app-uwp-from-powershell-in-windows-10

This leads to my other feature-request: execute PowerShell Commands (#39)

start shell:AppsFolder\{PackageFamilyName}!App doesn't work for me. Does it work for you?

I think i tested it with one of the few apps it worked on (Microsoft Photos App). I tested it with others now and it didn't work.

For me only the pre-installed UWP apps from Windows work like this: start ms-photos: or start ms-settings:

Yeah,

In Settings > Apps & Features > Default Programs > Choose Apps per Protocoll

you can find all the protocols that are registered in windows. This way you can add the important apps as custom commands as you described above.

PS: I have currently no way to change my language to englisch. It can be that i translated some settings-pages not exactly.

Sadly it doesn't help for an automated solution.

I will close this issue, because I have no acceptable solution for this issue.
