I don't understand this part of the install way:
apps can be installed with the following Windows PowerShell command

add-appxpackage C:\app1.appx –DependencyPath C:\winjs.appx

The file app1.appx is in this case the app that you want to install, and winjs.appx the dependency.
How do I find the "DependencyPath" and where do I get the file "winjs.appx" ?
 
You need to install win 8 store programs do not command << –DependencyPath C:\winjs.appx >> and first command is just to install
such as : add-appxpackage C:\Hearts.appx

<< please rename this file to Hearts.appx and install By the above command >>
Hearts.zip
 
Your instruction don't work so easy as you descripted - have you test it on a fresh installation ?

First: Your Hearts.zip / Hearts.appx don't work - I got this error:
Code:
PS C:\> add-appxpackage C:\Hearts.appx
add-appxpackage : Deployment failed with HRESULT: 0x80073CF0, Package could not be opened. (Exception from HRESULT:
0x80073CF0)
error 0x8007000B: Opening the package from location file:///C:/Hearts.appx failed.
NOTE: For additional information, look for [ActivityId] 081697a6-af7a-0000-859d-16087aafcd01 in the Event Log or use
the command line Get-AppxLog -ActivityID 081697a6-af7a-0000-859d-16087aafcd01

+ add-appxpackage C:\Hearts.appx

Perhaps it is a wrong version from Release Preview ? I test with Windows 8 RTM.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Second: With your instructions I downloaded two games (Microsoft Mahjong and Mineweeper, each more than 100 Mb). Then I uninstall them and tried your command:
add-appxpackage C:\Minesweeper.appx
add-appxpackage C:\Mahjong.appx

And they installed correctly.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Third: I tried the commands on an other installation where these games not downloaded before.

I got this error:
Code:
PS C:\> add-appxpackage C:\Mahjong.appx
add-appxpackage : Deployment failed with HRESULT: 0x80073CF3, Package failed updates, dependency or conflict
validation. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80073CF3)
Windows cannot install package Microsoft.MicrosoftMahjong because this package depends on another package that
couldn't be found. This package requires minimum version 11.0.50727.1 of framework Microsoft.VCLibs.110.00 published
by any publisher to install; the frameworks with name Microsoft.VCLibs.110.00 available to the user are
Microsoft.VCLibs.110.00_11.0.50712.1_x86__8wekyb3d8bbwe Microsoft.VCLibs.110.00_11.0.50712.1_x64__8wekyb3d8bbwe.
Provide the correct framework along with this package.
NOTE: For additional information, look for [ActivityId] 081697a6-af7a-0000-a801-17087aafcd01 in the Event Log or use
the command line Get-AppxLog -ActivityID 081697a6-af7a-0000-a801-17087aafcd01
At line:1 char:1
+ add-appxpackage C:\Mahjong.appx
+ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    + CategoryInfo          : WriteError: (C:\Mahjong.appx:String) [Add-AppxPackage], IOException
    + FullyQualifiedErrorId : DeploymentError,Microsoft.Windows.Appx.PackageManager.Commands.AddAppxPackageCommand
Because of the missing "frameworks" I downloaded "Minesweeper" from Store. After this Mahjong installs fine with no error. So I think the installation of "Minesweeper" from Store has installed also the missing "frameworks".

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Fourth: But Mahjong don't start. When I click the tile on start menu I got this error:
Code:
This app can't open
Check the Windows Store for more info about Microsoft Mahjong

When I go to Store I get this hint:
Code:
This app needs to be repaired
There's a problem with Microsoft Mahjong. Windows Store can try to repair the app for you.

When I choose "repair" Windows downloads then the app again and installs it again.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Conclusion:
  • So I think the only benefit from your instruction is that I can backup an app which I have installed before from Store on the same installation.
  • And I cannot transfer an app from one installation to an other installation (because of "missing frameworks" and "must repair")
 
Hello my friend
You're right about the first error
That was an error on your Windows Active code or wrong version windows
But you can open the Hearts.zip file
Can you tell me the file and run the following result
<<default.html>>

and Third:
NET Framework 3.5 installed on your system may not

or
Your file could not be downloaded correctly

plz Minesweeper.zip to download files you can upload it to the test I'm

I download the files I've tested on several other computers and install and run correctly
 
But you can open the Hearts.zip file
Can you tell me the file and run the following result
<<default.html>>
OK - then I can play "hearts" as a browser game.
(But Mahjong.zip and Minesweeper.zip don't have a "default.html")

and Third:
NET Framework 3.5 installed on your system may not
Before my tests NET Framework 3.5 was not installed.
But I install NET Framework 3.5 and do the same tests and got the same errors.
 
Fourth: But Mahjong don't start. When I click the tile on start menu I got this error:
Code:
This app can't open
Check the Windows Store for more info about Microsoft Mahjong

When I go to Store I get this hint:
Code:

There's a problem with Microsoft Mahjong. Windows Store can try to repair the app for you.

When I choose "repair" Windows downloads then the app again and installs it again.

OK - this works. But what advantage do I have with your instructions to download / backup the installation file ?
  • For repairing I must login into the store.
  • Whilst repairing the whole installation package is downloaded.
Then I can install the App directly from the store - I have to do the same steps:
  • Login into the store.
  • Whilst installing the App the whole installation package is downloaded.
