Next Generation of Software Packaging
As one of the selected partners for the new packaging and deployment format MSIX, Microsoft trust in Raynet. With version 6.0 – officially released before Christmas – RayPack Studio will support MSIX in addition to traditional packaging formats such as MSI and APP-V.
RayPack Studio 6.0 will come along with several more intelligent and innovative features that include significant new functions as well as performance enhancements that will revolutionize the packaging world.
MSIX-Packaging with RayPack Studio 6.0
With MSIX comes one of the biggest changes in the packaging industry. The new format – named MSIX – is internally based on APPX technology stack which provides a solid containerization foundation, yet expanding on previously unavailable enterprise oriented features. This is also symbolized by its name, where APPX + MSI = MSIX.
RayPack Studio 6.0 offers great possibilities for MSIX packaging:
- Creating MSIX packages from scratch
- Opening existing MSIX/APPX/RPPX packages with full editing capabilities
- Conversion of legacy software in MSIX packages
- Bulk conversion of packages to MSIX format
- Testing for compatibility with MSIX format
The following features of MSIX are supported by RayPack Studio:
- Standard editors for files and folders, registry, applications
- Extensions: COM, context menu integration, firewall rules, file extensions
- Package Support Framework
- Modification packages, dependencies, capabilities
- Resource editing
