[UWA Kodi 17 Beta 6] How can you get included helper exe to launch? - CoinTos - 2016-11-18
I am trying to make my Launchbox Launcher script Windows Store friendly but I can't figure out a way to get the helper exe to launch while being included in the package.
It appears that UWA version won't let an exe execute in the UWA addon_data folder but anywhere else is ok. So it does in fact try to launch the file but something in the container is silently stopping it but I have no idea why. If I put it in any other folder and try it or if I had 'upgraded' by installing the windows store version and it finds my old Kodi userdata folder with the plugin addon_data it will launch it from there.
Any help would be appreciated.
