The settings page currently has one option, which is deprecated (and should probably removed from PackageView as well). Add some new settings, perhaps an about page as well, or just remove the settings page entirely.

Very nice. I did run into some minor date parsing issues related to Json deserialization.

        public async Task<ProductDetailsViewModel> GetProductDetailsAsync(ProductDetails productDetails, CultureInfo culture, RegionInfo region)
        {
            try
            {
                var item = await StorefrontApi.GetProduct(productDetails.ProductId, region.TwoLetterISORegionName, culture.Name);
                var candidate = item.Convert<ProductDetails>().Payload;
                if (candidate?.PackageFamilyNames != null && candidate?.ProductId != null)
                {
                    return new ProductDetailsViewModel(candidate);
                }
                else return null;

            }

What OS/App version/architecture are you seeing the problem on?

Observed on 0.3.2, likely affect all 0.3.x releases (the ones that use the more intelligent PluginLoader)

Description

PluginLoader blindly attempts to delete the extracted plugin if it already exists, without checking to see if files in the the directory are in use. This means that most of the plugin's files get deleted, without the new plugin replacing it. This breaks the currently installed plugin, and fails to install the new plugin. The only way to get out of this corrupted state is to manually delete the corrupted plugin and reattempt the install.

Steps To Reproduce

1. Go to app settings
2. Go to the plugins tab
3. Select the "Install a plugin" option
4. Pick a ZIP file for a plugin that is already loaded
5. Observe that the

Expected behavior

PluginLoader should delete the existing plugin if it can, else it should save the ZIP archive in the plugin directory so the install can be completed when the app restarts.

There are now certain apps hosted on the Microsoft Store that use the winget backend to install rather than the normal store. These are new for Windows 11.

The ProductID for these apps start with XP rather than 9, and are 2 digits longer than normal productId's.

A few examples:
XP89DCGQ3K6VLD - PowerToys
XP9KHM4BK9FZ7Q - Visual Studio Code
XP8CDJNZKFM06W - Visual Studio Community 2019
XPFFTQ037JWMHS - Edge Browser

FluentStore crashes when you try to perform an action (install, download package, share web link) on these winget-powered apps. (I am not sure if there is an official name.) I believe the intent is to allow any developers to list a winget app in the store, and these are early samples. More will be coming.

This is what they look like from winget

All non-AMD64 architectures, all releases of Fluent Store.

Description

Most of the default plugins are compiled for x64, which means they don't work on x86 or ARM machines. Compiling for x86 only is not a solution, as some things may still break even on x64. The current default plugins structure has single list of download links per release, which does not allow the app to download the appropriate architecture. This can be easily solved in a backward-compatible way by having one list per architecture, per release.

This is a snapshot of the new hybrid structure. Versions before 0.3.1 don't specify their architecture, so they still use the old format. Later versions have a separate list for each architecture.

Currently, searching for packages [using the MS Store handler] is very slow because it has to make a web request for each item to obtain its details.

One proper solution is to have a system to load secondary details for packages, so loading is done in two stages. The first is whatever the search request returned, then displayed in the UI. Then, the second stage loads additional information for each item in the background, updating the UI as it goes.

Another possible solution would be to utilize async collections, so all details are loaded at once, but each item is shown in the UI as it finishes retrieving everything.

Currently the only way for users to access the logs is by clicking the Plugin Directory button and exploring the AppData folder. There should be a button in settings to open the log folder directly.

your app is only available in English. Do you have any plan to add other language resources on .App or installer? and I want to translate them into my native Japanese and use it as ja-JP.

Also, this app is still pre-released and seems to be unstable in many places, so it may not be possible, but just please keep in mind that I want to do that.

Currently, Fluent Store will happily download and install apps from the Microsoft Store that are paid, such as Affinity Designer. Note that does not enable piracy: Windows will prevent the app from running if the signed in user does not have a valid license for it. This can lead to a poor user experience, if they download and install an app only to find that it doesn't work. There should be a warning of some sort on paid apps to explain this. The real trouble will be implementing this while keeping the abstraction between the UI and package sources.

Hello,

I've recently became aware of this project/app, although, upon my attempts to install v0.3.2 (first initial install) I keep receiving:
"App installation failed with error message: Class not registered (0x80040154)"

 
Wondering if anyone would kindly be able to provide me with some resolution-feedback

 
 
...
To go in details about undertaken steps (for troubleshooting purposes):

Following some quick google searches using criteria: "Class not registered (0x80040154)",
it was suggested that I install the following runtime:

• C++ Runtime v11.0 framework package for Desktop Bridge (Project Centennial)
• C++ Runtime v12 framework package for Desktop Bridge (Project Centennial)

Although, the installation of those above mentioned-runtime(s) didn't solve this particular issue...

As for my installation process...

I've acquired both

• FluentStoreBeta.appinstaller
• FluentStoreBeta_0.3.2_2.msixbundle

I first executed msixbundle which resulted to a "Class not registered (0x80040154)" error message.
and then executed appinstaller which also resulted to a "Class not registered (0x80040154)" error message.

 
 
As for the "executed from" local destination path

Having altered my OS's default profile basic-folders location..
Both were executed from "D:\Admin\OS\W10\Users\Andre\Download"
(not sure if not being in proper drive letter can be an issue, as I did prior experience a few .exe fail in the past due to this)

I unintentionally discovered this when testing on a clean instance (Windows Sandbox)

When performing a search, occasionally duplicate entries are shown:

Notice how "World of Bamboo PREMIUM" shows up twice. I'm just guessing, but is this possibly due to the way the internal list gets added to? I haven't looked at that part of the code, but it looks like a simple overlap problem.

Description

At the moment, plugins don't really specify any information on their own. The image and name shown on the plugin settings page is taken from the package handlers. The closest to plugin metadata we have so far is a single TXT file that contains the name of the primary DLL.

What we really should do is include a proper manifest that includes information about the plugin, including the canonical plugin ID, version, name, author(s), and project URL. This manifest might also be used to specify a location from which to check for updates.

Currently, the Home page only shows featured packages from the Fluent Store API. Each source should have its own Featured section on the Home page.

A fair number of packaged apps are available via WinGet but not the Microsoft Store. Add a feature that can search, download, and install WinGet packages either by using WinGet.run's API or the GitHub API on the WinGet package repo.

Sometimes users might want to disable sources that are causing issues or not providing useful results for their region. Add an option to toggle each package source on/off.

Currently, package sources are defined directly in the FluentStore.SDK assembly. This means that package sources can't be added or updated without an app update. Many of the breaking issues in Fluent Store are with package sources and not the app itself, so separating the two should allow for quicker bugfixes and features. It would also mean that those wishing to make their own source do not have to contribute to Fluent Store, and as such do not require approval from Fluent Store devs.

This issue could also solve #25, though it is not required

Description

Some packages, for example GitHub repos, have multiple versions, and each version has multiple files. Currently, Fluent Store always uses its algorithm to guess which file is most likely the installer for the latest release. However, sometimes users want to download an older version of an app, or the algorithm fails and the user needs to pick manually.

Giving users the option of picking from all available files should make this possible. Note that the current automatic method should be kept as the default.

Package sources can be disabled with the basic toggle-switch interface, but this does not allow disabling account handlers or adding/removing plugins.

This feature depends on #36, as there should be a separate tab for plugin management.

Some packages from WinGet, such as GitHub.GitHubDesktop and OpenJS.NodeJS, are invalid. The WinGetRun database seems to be out of date, which is causing download issues in Fluent Store.
