[MOD] Save apps to sdcard (Surface RT) (Working) topic

Took many post's wats and finally got a working one!

Assuming that you have:

• Not modified the registry.


• Surface RT with Windows 8.1


• Patience (Essential)

First: Taking ownership.

Use

Code:

---

takeown /F "C:\Program Files\WindowsApps" /A /R

---

Second

Let's remove the C:\Program Files\WindowsApps folder (As we have already taken ownership we can do this) just use "SHIFT+SUPR".
There is also a way to preserve already installed apps, this shouldn't affect but in the proccess I just deleted everything, anyway, you decide...

Code:

---

robocopy "C:\Program Files\WindowsApps" "D:\WindowsApps" /E /COPYALL /DCOPY:DAT

---

and then just use "SHIFT+SPR" to delete the folder.
Assuming that your news apps folder is at "D:\WindowsApps" change it to the directory where you want to have the apps.

Third

Now let's create the symbolic link

Code:

---

mklink /D "C:\Program Files\WindowsApps" "D:\WindowsApps"

---

Restart
Try to install an app and... d*mn! Error 0xd00000bb :confused:
Don't worry just right click over the new app directory, in my case "D:\WindowsApps" and choose properties... then Security tab and then Advanced now we must be sure that there is the "ALL APPLICATION PACKAGES" with full control if it isn't then just add it. Enable inheritance and tick the option "Replace all child permi..." then ok and wait... when it's done go to the Windows Store and click "Retry" and.... voi lá :D :D app get installed.

Be hapy :good:
