Manual Installation ​

The releases on GitHub are built from its source code.

The application is packaged as an .msix file. Windows will only install a package that has been signed. The version published in the Microsoft Store is signed with a Microsoft certificate as it has been through a verification process.

The version on GitHub uses a self-signing certificate that needs to be installed first before the application is installed.

The script Install.ps1 installs the certificate and then installs the .msix package.

Steps:

  1. Download the latest release from the Releases page - internals-viewer-msix-x64.zip for 64-bit Windows
  2. Extract the files to a folder and navigate to artifacts\msix-package-x64\InternalsViewer.UI.App_<version>_x64_Test\, which holds Install.ps1, the certificate and the .msix package
  3. Run powershell -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File Install.ps1
  4. You will be prompted to install the certificate. Accept the prompts to continue

WARNING

Install.ps1 adds the release's certificate to the trusted certificates on the machine, so only run it for a package downloaded from this repository's Releases page.

An x86 package is also published, but use the x64 package where you can - the symbol resolution behind the Call Stack only ships for x64.
