Where to store data files in WinStore app (win32 Project Centennial)


I am porting my native Win32 app to Windows 10 Store with Desktop App Convertor.

What is the most recommended place to store local data files, it seems %APPDATA% works, but is it most recommended place for user data in Win10 Store Apps?

Is this %appdata% virtualized and cleaned automatically if user uninstall app from Win Store?


Solution

  • %LOCALAPPDATA% is new requirement to be compatible with store
