localizing app name in desktop bridge apps


i have a desktop app to convert to uwp apps, it has a different app name on different system language, I knew to do this in uwp project, setting the package display name with ms-resource:AppName, but in desktop bridge apps it didn't work, can anyone help me ?


Solution

  • Instructions on how to do this are in the "Using MRT for Desktop Apps" whitepaper. Basically you need to build a PRI file with your resources and then reference them from the AppXManifest. (The whitepaper also includes additional steps you can take if you want to localize the app's content as well).
