'Associate App with the store' option is not showing is visual studio ultimate 2013 for windows phone 8.1 silverlight project

Question

I need to publish my windows phone 8.1 silverlight application to the store. I used Visual Studio 2013 Ultimate for developing the application.

But I could not find 'Associate App with the store' option in the project tab. Lauch app certification kit is the only available option . How do I associate app with the store ? Please help.!

Answer 1

Silverlight apps don't need to be manually associated with the store. The application ID, etc. will be set automatically on the xap when it is uploaded and signed.

For a Windows Runtime app the "Associate the app with the store" menu will copy the application ID, publisher ID, etc. locally into the appxmanifest.
