Executable Arguments Fixup

MSIX packages inherently do not support passing of arguments to an executable (.exe) while launching an application. To pass arguments to an executable you need to apply an Executable Arguments fixup to the application.

To create an Executable Arguments Fixup, perform the following steps:

To create Executable Arguments Fixup:

1.

Select an application in the Applications node, click the Apply button in the MSIX Editor ribbon, and then select Executable Arguments Fixup from the menu.

Note:You could also select an application, right click, and select Executable Arguments Fixup from the context menu.

The Executable Arguments Fixup Configuration view opens.

2.

Enter the following information:

Property	Description
Fixup Name	Specify the custom name of the fixup. This is an editable property where you can make edits to change the existing name of the Fixup. It should be alpha-numeric with space. Note:This name must be unique across all the Fixups for an application shortcut.
Executable	This property displays the executable that will be invoked when the application is launched. This is a non-editable property.
Working Directory	This property displays the working directory of the application. This is a non-editable property.
Arguments	Specify the command-line arguments that you wish to pass to executable of an application upon its launch. This is a mandatory property.

3.

After providing argument property value, click Update button.

4.

To rename the existing Fixup, right-click on the desired Fixup in the Application node, and select Rename Fixup from the context menu. After the required edits, click the Update button for the changes to take effect.

5.

To delete, right-click on the desired Fixup in the Application node, and select Delete Fixup from the context menu. Click Yes and confirm to proceed the changes.

6.

Click Save or Save As in the ribbon for the change to take effect.

Note:Only one Executable Arguments Fixup can be applied to an application.
