Is it possible to change store package from UWP to WPF and then UWP again?

Question

Hi, I have a UWP app published on the store, I need to publish an update that uses WebView2 but as WinUI3 is still in preview I'm thinking to publish a WPF desktop only version and when WinUI3 is ready to go publish a new universal version.

Is this possible? Or is there already a release date for WinUI3 release?

Thanks in advance.

Hello,

Welcome to Microsoft Q&A!

Is it possible to change store package from UWP to WPF and then UWP again?

In my understand, you want to publish a new version that builds by a WPF project. Then publish another new version builds by a UWP project when the WinUI3 release, right?

This is possible, you just need to make sure that your project follows the store policies. Another thing that you need to know is that you could not upload a WPF project to the store directly. You might need to package an MSIX package from your WPF project and upload the MSIX package to the store.

You could refer to this document for how to package an MSIX package.

Thank you.
