PR Type
What kind of change does this PR introduce?
What is the current behavior?
Unpackaged (Windows) applications can't make used of applicationdata, so IStorage and localization services don't work
What is the new behavior?
For unpackaged applications, the local path to the executing assembly is used for packaged files. A settings implementation has been added to support read/write settings where ApplicationData.LocalSettings doesn't work for unpackaged applications.
