Windows App SDK 1.0.1 is now available

Windows App SDK 1.0.1 is a stable servicing release that includes critical bug fixes and multi-window support for the 1.0 release.

  • If you're building an app with the Windows App SDK for the first time, follow the installation instructions here.

  • If you are already using the Windows App SDK 1.0 and would like to update to the latest release:

    • Update your Microsoft.WindowsAppSDK NuGet package reference from 1.0.0 to 1.0.1.
    • Download the 1.0.1 runtime using either the standalone Runtime installer (.exe) or the Windows App Runtime Redistributable which includes all MSIX package dependencies.

Bugs fixed in Windows App SDK 1.0.1:

  • Fixed issue causing the MddBootstrapAutoinitializer to not compile with enabled ImplicitUsings: #1686
  • Fixed issue where focus in WebView2 would be unexpectedly lost causing input and selection issues: #5615 & #5570
  • Fixed issue causing the in-app toolbar in Visual Studio to be unclickable when using a custom title bar in a WinUI 3 app.
  • Fixed issue causing Snap Layout to not appear when using a custom title bar in a WinUI 3 app: #6333 & #6246
  • Fixed issue causing an exception when setting Window.ExtendsContentIntoTitleBar property when Window.SetTitlebar has been called with a still-loading UIElement.
  • Fixed issue where Single-project MSIX apps did not support dotnet build.
  • Fixed issue causing unpackaged apps to not install after installing a packaged app: #1871
  • Fixed issue reducing performance during mouse drag operations.
  • Fixed crash when calling GetWindowIdFromWindow() in unpackaged apps: Discussed in #1891

Additionally, for apps with custom title bars, we have made changes in this release (and fixed numerous issues) that include fixes to the glass window used for drag&drop operations.
The recommendation is to use the default values and behaviors (give them a try!).
If your title bar used margins so that the default caption buttons were interactive, we recommend visualizing your drag region by setting the background of your title bar to red and then adjusting the margins to extend the drag region to the caption controls.

New capabilities

We have stabilized and enabled the creation of multiple windows on the same thread in WinUI 3 applications. Previously, this would produce an error.
