The evolution of application virtualization has seen several transitions—from App-V to UWP and now to MSIX. While MSIX holds significant promise as a modern packaging format, its practical adoption has faced hurdles, especially in converting traditional desktop applications.

In this session, we’ll focus on the most impactful aspect of MSIX: converting legacy applications to the MSIX format. Kevin Kaminski will guide attendees through real-world conversion scenarios and share practical strategies for leveraging MSIX within Azure Virtual Desktop (AVD) environments to improve application delivery and management.

Key Takeaways:

• A comparison of App-V, UWP, and MSIX—what’s changed and what each brings to the table.
• Common pitfalls and technical challenges in converting applications to MSIX.
• A step-by-step understanding of how to build a reliable MSIX package.

This session is ideal for IT professionals and application packagers looking to streamline and modernize their deployment workflows using MSIX.
