I see that the Interactivity namespace was moved into the Prism.Wpf package since V6 - how do I access this functionality in a Win10 UAP app?
Prism.Wpf is for WPF only and thus not compatible with Windows 10 UWP (binary wise).
For Windows 8.1 RT / Windows 10 UWP you currently can add a reference to the Behaviors SDK. Note that it targets Windows 8.1, but it works under Windows 10 as well.
An alternative to adding the reference is opening Blend, and dragging a behavior from the Assets tab onto your page. This will add a reference as well.
Even better news is that Microsoft is working on a NuGet library for Windows 10 UWP behaviors, which should be available in approx. 1 month and will be made open source. So anyone reading this in the future, should look for the package.

Hi StackOverFlow Team;
I am new to JavaFx and I have developed a POS (Point of Sale Application) in Windows 7 64 bit machine and I packaged the application with Netbeans Native packge or self-contained package. When I install the application in other W7 machines, the application runs fine as expected. However, when I install the same application in Windows 10 64 bits, the application still runs but it is rendering strangely.I was expecting the application to display exactly the same way it is displaying in W7 since it is native package. However when in W10, It looses the original layout and some icons move to different location in the gui. Can anybody help me to solve this or point me to the solution?
Your support is highly appreciated.
Thank you in advance.
I’m using, integrated in my software, List&Label 16 and now I would like to upgrade it to the version 24.
I have a couple of question:
I’m using, for historical reasons, .NET Framework 3.5, and I’m
building my Visual Studio project with this framework. Can anyone
confirm that List&Label 24 is fully compatible with .NET framework
3.5?
Opening the LL viewer and editor from my application I cannot save any file in the C:\Program FIles… folder of my application. Should I change the folder? Or there is some workaround to write in one folder under the path C:\Program files…?
Thanks to all
Regards
Yes, LL24 is fully compatible with .NET 3.5
Basically, this is a Windows question. The viewer can open files from whatever location you have access to. There are several APIs in the product (e.g. LlPreviewSetTempPath) to set the temporary path for printing and exporting. On Windows 10, the default of your app should be somewhere in the Documents path of the user
I have a universal windows application for windows 8.1 and windows phone (WAP)
But my customer doesn't have access to the windows store, there's a way to use Installshield or something similar to generate a Setup Installer?
At the moment i have to type some code in powershell and it's really annoying and unprofessional.
There's a workaround for this situation?
The Suite/Advanced UI project type (Premier edition of recent enough versions—probably 2012 Spring) has support for side-loading .appx packages. More recent versions (2016 or so) add support for Windows 10 UWP App Packages.
Can a raspberry pi with Windows 10 IOT run normal windows apps created in visual studio?
On Windows 10 IoT core, you can run Windows 10 Universal applications (UWP) with a visual interface. In Visual Studio, start a new "Universal Windows" project with your chosen programming language. You can then code a GUI with for example XAML just like a desktop or mobile Windows 10 application. For example for C# use Visual C# -> Universal -> Blank App (Universal Windows).
You need the Windows SDK but that is included in the Visual Studio 2015 Update 1.
To access the unique features of the device (like GPIO) you need to add a reference to "Windows IoT Extension SDK".
Examples on how to do it:
See this repository for samples of many kinds of different apps (you can just download a ZIP of all those and play with them): https://github.com/ms-iot/samples
Tutorials for the samples:

I also want to use VB6 on iot/ARM
it seems that this feature is blocked in Win10 ioT
the best option for now is booting a MicroLinux Kernel for ARM with Wine
No Visual Basic 6 will not work with Windows 10 IoT. I have heard there are tools that allow it to work somewhat with Raspbian.
I have examples of Visual Basic using Visual Studio Community 2017 and the Raspberry Pi using Windows 10 IoT. You can use the GPIO, SQL Server, Access files, send email(using LightBuz Libraries). There are videos at A1entities.com and samples in my new book Raspberry Pi and Visual Basic Programming Windows 10 IoT. It’s on Kindle and Amazon.
I am developing an Outlook plugin solution that involves the plugin itself and a windows application working in tandem.
The plugin targets multiple versions of Outlook - 2007, 2010 and 2013.
The windows app uses different libraries for x86 and 64 bit processors.
Of course there are dependencies of both the plugin and the app.
In addition to pure installation, I would like to make automatic updates possible. It could be something as simple as custom code in the windows app to check for updates in a predefined location. But I would like to know my options.
The solution I have in mind right now, and which I would like to ask the SO community to evaluate is as follows:
Separate Windows Setup Projects (producing MSI files) for each combination of application and configuration (This could be as many as 8 different msi files)
One common bootstrapper project, detecting current system configuration and installing prerequisites and selected msis.
MSIs would not have prerequisites embedded in them, only the uber-installer/bootstrapper would have those.
Am I missing something? Is this solution viable? Are there third party alternatives to Windows Setup Projects that would make my life easier? Full featured Install Shield maybe?
In case this actually is helpful for someone, the solution I went with is the incredibly customizable installer solution: InstallMate 7 by Tarma.
You can find out more from their website, but the features that got me are:
Built in support for x86 and x64
Customizable prerequisites
Stand-alone update tool also provided by Tarma, which simplifies
automatic updates a lot.
PRICE! Forget about spending 5K on similar features elsewhere.
