private apps for Windows

Hi there,

I must deploy and DPS app in private for windows, in the help page, for a public distribution the documentation Digital Publishing Solution Help | Windows publishing guide for DPS 2015 is clear enough but for the private distribution it's  bit more confusing. Adobe said that they can give more information on request, could you please?

Especially on the certificat needed and how the app could be given to the users without beign on the WindowStore.

How many machines are you distributing to? The package as it is downloaded from App Builder is actually installable on any machine you like, provided you're willing to acquire a developer license on that machine (which the install script will do for you) and trust the self-sign certificate (which the install script also does for you). If you're only deploying to a small number of internal machines that's likely your best bet.

If you're talking about an enterprise-wide deployment to many, many, machines, then you'll need to re-sign the .appxbundle and .appx files with a certificate your enterprise machines already trust. This can be any app signing certificate, but must be trusted by your enterprise machines. If you get to the stage where that's something you want to do I can provide some information on the command lines to do that.
