PerformAppXPackageScan

IT Asset Management (Cloud)

Command line | Registry

PerformAppXPackageScan enables the Flexera Inventory Agent to collect inventory data for Microsoft Store applications (AppX packages) installed on Windows devices. This includes extracting metadata for each AppX package, such as:

• Package name
• Version
• Publisher
• Processor architecture
• Installation path
• Associated username
• User SID

The agent retrieves this information by scanning relevant registry keys and parsing the AppxManifest.xml file located in each package’s installation directory.

AppX evidence is recorded in the NDI file alongside other installer evidence types. When this preference is enabled, the agent automatically collects and reports AppX package details for all user profiles on the device.

This setting is a Boolean value (True or False) and is enabled by default.
