I am tring to upgrade mongodb driver used in an UWP C# application (completly writen in C#, build for x86, x64, arm and arm64). The last driver version that worked was 2.10.4. Any driver version above that compiled and was running just fine, but failed WACK ( Windows App Certification Kit). If i upload the updated app package to Windows Store, it fails certification with the same problems as WACK. I need to upgrade the driver because, from februrary 2022, all shared mongodb instances will be upgraded to 5.0. Mongo driver 2.10.4 only supports up to 4.4. The certification problems i am getting are:
Binary analyzer
Error Found: The binary analyzer test detected the following errors:
File libzstd.dll has failed the DBCheck check.
Impact if not fixed: If the app doesn’t use the available Windows protections, it can increase the vulnerability of the customer's computer to malware.
How to fix: Apply the required linker options - SAFESEH, DYNAMICBASE, NXCOMPAT, and APPCONTAINER - when you link the app.

Impact if not fixed: Using an API that is not part of the Windows SDK for Microsoft Store apps violates the Microsoft Store certification requirements.
How to fix: Review the error messages to identify the API that is not part of the Windows SDK for Microsoft Store apps. Please note, apps that are built in a debug configuration or without .NET Native enabled (where applicable) can fail this test as these environments may pull in unsupported APIs. Retest your app in a release configuration, and with .NET Native enabled if applicable.
Platform appropriate files
Error Found: The platform appropriate files test detected the following errors:
File libzstd.dll is designed only for x64 processor type; App package manifest declares 'ProcessorArchitecture' as arm.
File mongocrypt.dll is designed only for x64 processor type; App package manifest declares 'ProcessorArchitecture' as arm.
File snappy32.dll is designed only for x86 processor type; App package manifest declares 'ProcessorArchitecture' as arm.
File snappy64.dll is designed only for x64 processor type; App package manifest declares 'ProcessorArchitecture' as arm.
Impact if not fixed: Including files in the app package that are incompatible with the target processor architecture may cause your app to fail at runtime.
How to fix: Ensure that binary file architecture is compatible with the ProcessorArchitecture attribute specified within the app package manifest.
Any help is appreciated
Maybe you can remove the need to have a driver. If you only need a simple GET/PUT you can make a http request.
