i have on suggetion : this app able to do backup apps on phone + sd card (app data) _ you can add a new function to the app to make file from installed apps to .Appx OR .Appxbundle .. so after uninstallation of app ...we dont need to download the app from store.. and we can share the apps..

can this is done? if yes then i think its usefull...

and if done than this app is mindblowing because ...its contain everything app+data...:highfive:
[Windows 10 Mobile Apps. and Games] mahdi75:
Does that happen on legacy apps installed on phone memory too?

Unfortunately I currently don't have access to a phone with an SD card, so it's a little hard to find the issue. Are you interested to help me isolate and fix the issue? If so, please send a private message to me.
[Windows 10 Mobile Apps. and Games] AndrewSpec:
I've just checked it - legacy app installed in phone memory (I've just move it from sd card) is working fine and I was able to create an backup.

Is there's a way to uninstall apps like OneDrive it's broken on my phone so i either need the appx or uninstall it to get it again from the store
[Windows 10 Mobile Apps. and Games] mahdi75:
Try reseting the state of OneDrive app using App Data Manage Tool, most likely it'll fix your problem, just like uninstall+reinstall (which is not possible for system apps).
[Windows 10 Mobile Apps. and Games] karaki93:
i tried with no luck the app is just an icon on the app list and the store keep failing to update it so i guess i need the appx if theres a way to get it
[Windows 10 Mobile Apps. and Games] mahdi75:
I actually tried doing that, but I had no success in recreating appx files correctly. If anyone knows how to do that, it would be great to help me :)
[Windows 10 Mobile Apps. and Games] titi66200:
Build appx or appxbundle on PC use Makeappx.exe

https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/hh446767(v=vs.85).aspx

But doing the same thing on mobile i dont know if we can.
[Windows 10 Mobile Apps. and Games] mahdi75:
I tried those too, but the appx package never installed or ran successfully. Maybe the problem was with the place I extracted app files from.

Do you know exactly how it is possible to repack an appx? (getting files from phone, create appx in PC)
[Windows 10 Mobile Apps. and Games] A AJAY:
i m not sure... but try this....(m also not coder) it just an idea

1 : if you can access the directory where the app installed then make zip from the app install folder

2: rename it to Appx.

3: move to backup folder..

this is worked to make an .xap from install file...so,try on appx..let me know it works or not.

i m sure its works.. but i cant make an application due to i dont code this ....;)
[Windows 10 Mobile Apps. and Games] titi66200:
Appx not only zip file.

Appxmaker create some files
[Windows 10 Mobile Apps. and Games] mahdi75:
Yes, creating a zip and renaming it to appx won't work.

But even when I used their tools to create appx and then sign it, I was able to install it but the app crashed immediately. I'm not sure why.
[Windows 10 Mobile Apps. and Games] titi66200:
What is the application to try?
[Windows 10 Mobile Apps. and Games] A AJAY:
yaa....i test just 10 min ago. simple app zip not work...need some modification.

trying to modify for install using makeappx.exe..but still getting error:(
[Windows 10 Mobile Apps. and Games] mahdi75:
You need to sign the appx too, google it.
[Windows 10 Mobile Apps. and Games] A AJAY:
plz give command line to do this

getting error to pack appx:rolleyes:
[Windows 10 Mobile Apps. and Games] titi66200:
For Windows 8.1 appx and Windows 10 Appx it is not the same Makeappx.exe.

Windows 10 Appx

C:"Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\10\bin\x86\MakeAppx.exe" pack /d F:\Unpackedappx /p F:\Appx\titi66200.appx /l

[Windows 10 Mobile Apps. and Games] djtonka:
Did you remove any files before packing it?
[Windows 10 Mobile Apps. and Games] mahdi75:
Yeah, just tried it. it works. Thanks :)

So, creating appx needs a PC, so unfortunately it's currently impossible to create a phone app for this.

Backup and restore works perfectly on 650 DS on all apps, however Reset only works with UWP apps - although removing 8.x app, reinstalling and restoring from backup works as a workaround :)
[Windows 10 Mobile Apps. and Games] mahdi75:
What happens when you reset legacy apps?

Also, by 8.x apps you mean those with * sign, right?
[Windows 10 Mobile Apps. and Games] ap3rus:
Yes, exactly :)

Once I click reset and accept confirmation, it shows spinner for a while and once it's done the app is still not reset.
[Windows 10 Mobile Apps. and Games] mahdi75:
I'll check :)

Btw, those with * signs are mostly 8.0 apps. Many (All?) 8.1 apps use the new manifest and data folder structure, just like UWP apps.
[Windows 10 Mobile Apps. and Games] mahdi75:
That's weird. Maybe it's hitting RAM limit while creating the zip file. So that specific file is 434 MB?

After that, does the resulting zip file contains all the other files? or it stops at that file?
[Windows 10 Mobile Apps. and Games] titi66200:
zip file contains all the other files.

App Data Manage Tool v2.1 released with numerous improvements.

The tool now includes a caching mechanism, so app loads much faster (after initial loading first time you open the app). I'm also releasing this as a separate open-source library, so other apps can take advantage of this method to load information about installed apps quickly.

Other improvements are:

Added the ability to backup legacy apps on SD card.

You can now easily create a zip file from installation files of apps. It comes handy when you want to repack an app.

Device telemetry clearing tool..

Can you make a tool to delete device telemetry .. There is no option to delete it from storage app in recent rs2 release.. Device telemetry uses a lot of phone memory and the only way to delete it is by uploading the files on un-metered connection which is not always possible.. So if you can design a simple handy tool it will be awesome..

[Windows 10 Mobile Apps. and Games] _AndyAndy_:
Mahdi, thx a lot for a good job. I join Sirozan's feature request regarding a select all option. That would allow WP users to create an offline backup of everything installed, as it was possible in Windows Mobile with tools like Sprite Backup.

However I have a trouble with restoring an app. I'm trying to copy settings of Opera Mini (mainly its bookmarks) to another phone. I installed your tool on both phones, created a backup on one phone and copied the folder to the other phone. The backup folder shows up in your app but when I tap on it the app crashes, i.e. closes without any warning.

Can you please help?

UPD:

Tried it with another app, Adobe Acrobate, same trouble.

I'm on W10M 10.0.14393.448. Source phone is a Lumia 640, target phone is a Lumia 640 XL.

UPD 2:

Solved it. The error reason was that I renamed the folder when I moved it to the other phone. I renamed it back exactly after the "Name" tag from the json file ("Name": "Opera 2016-11-23 15-28-42") and it works now! So once the backup is created, it is NOT allowed to change its folder name!

[Windows 10 Mobile Apps. and Games] _AndyAndy_:
I had a similar trouble. Try to change the backup folder under "settings". The default backup path resides in your user profile in the internal memory. If your language is not English, this can be a problem. I created a new folder in the sd card root and if worked then.

How can I make the archives extracted from apps via this app sideloadable?

These are what I tried:

1. Change the extensions to XAP, APPX or APPXBUNDLE and try to install them via File Explorer and InteropTools after turning on Developer options (Error: Unable to install package)

2. Change the extensions to XAP, APPX or APPXBUNDLE and try to install them via WP8.0 and WP 8.1 SDK Application Deployment after turning on Developer options (Error: Cannot find AppManifest)

3. Registered the archive using InteropTools and then deployed via all above ways (Error: Unable to install package/ Error in AppManifest document (2, 2))

Anyone got anymore ideas? Probably the above methods can help finding a way to make the archive sideloadable. Thanks
[Windows 10 Mobile Apps. and Games] Ryccardo:
Step 1: Remove anything that's not the program folder.

Extract the zip in an empty folder (preferably on a PC); if it contains folders like Install, NI, TempNI, ... - then go inside Install and consider this the app's folder, else stay in the root of the zip

Step 2: Figure out if xap or appx

Signs of being appx are files called "AppXManifest", "AppXBlockMap", "AppXSignature" (names not exact, but you get the idea)

If it's appx and still on the store, it is simpler to just redownload it (wpsnitch.appspot.com)

If you want/need to do it manually, these links will probably help though I've never done it personally:

http://www.laurierhodes.info/?q=node/80

https://xdaforums.com/windows-10-mobile/how-to-repack-appxbundle-xap-files-t3582958

If it's xap (ie doesn't have the above files), just delete this one: "WMAppPRHeader.xml"

You can also edit the title in the AppManifest, delete a build log (a text file usually with a random name) if it exists to save space, etc -- then at the end just zip the contents of the folder and rename to XAP!

It should install with WPV Xap Deployer at least...
