About this tag
The commandlineactivatedeventargs tag covers the activation of Universal Windows Apps (UWAs) via command line, a feature introduced in Windows 10 build 16226. It involves adding an appExecutionAlias extension to the app manifest and overriding the OnActivated method to handle incoming arguments. This capability helps bridge the gap between Win32 and UWA applications, allowing developers to pass arbitrary command-line arguments to their apps. The tag is relevant for Windows developers working with UWP and Desktop Bridge apps, focusing on activation events and argument handling.
As we continue to close the gap between Win32 and Universal Windows Apps, one of the features we’ve recently introduced is the ability to activate a UWA from a command line and pass the app arbitrary command-line arguments. This is available to Insiders from build 16226.
