SSMS 19.3 MSIX

Wed Feb 14, 2024 11:37 pm

Hello,

Anyone have any experience with repackaging SSMS 19.3 or older versions? I am trying to build a MSIX package to use with AppAttach for SSMS. I don't have any issues with capturing the installation using Windows Sandbox. When I try to open the Package in Advanced Installer It hangs on loading Registry Keys.

I have narrowed the Registry Keys down to

HKCU\Software\Microsoft\SQL Server Management Studio\19.0_IsoSHell_Config
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Fusion

Hello Mike,

To be fully honest with you, the SSMS setup is a quite complex one and I do not think creating a MSIX package for it is feasible.

Not even Microsoft offers it as MSIX, that would tell us something. :)
