The Windows App SDK is a set of new developer components and tools that represent the next evolution in the Windows app development platform. The Windows App SDK provides a unified set of APIs and tools that can be used in a consistent way by any desktop app on Windows 11 and downlevel to Windows 10, version 1809.
The Windows App SDK doesn't replace the Windows SDK or existing desktop Windows app types such as .NET (including Windows Forms and WPF) and desktop Win32 with C++. Instead, the Windows App SDK complements those existing tools and app types with a common set of APIs that developers can rely on across these platforms. For more details, see Benefits of the Windows App SDK.
The Windows App SDK provides extensions for Visual Studio 2022 and Visual Studio 2019. Those extensions include project templates configured to use the Windows App SDK components in new projects. The Windows App SDK libraries are also available via a NuGet package that you can install in existing projects.
The following table highlights the development features that are provided by the current releases of the Windows App SDK. For more details about the release channels of the Windows App SDK that include each of these features, see Features available by release channel.
The Windows App SDK provides a broad set of Windows APIs with implementations that are decoupled from the OS and released to developers via NuGet packages. The Windows App SDK is not meant to replace the Windows SDK. The Windows SDK will continue to work as is, and there are many core components of Windows that will continue to evolve via APIs that are delivered via OS and Windows SDK releases. Developers are encouraged to adopt the Windows App SDK at their own pace.
Developers who want to create desktop Windows apps must choose between several app platforms and frameworks. Although each platform provides many features and APIs that can be used by apps that are built using other platforms, some features and APIs can only be used by specific platforms. The Windows App SDK unifies access to Windows APIs for desktop Windows 11 and Windows 10 apps. No matter which app model you choose, you will have access to the same set of Windows APIs that are available in the Windows App SDK.
Over time, we plan to make further investments in the Windows App SDK that remove more distinctions between the different app models. For example, your app might use the WinUI Desktop model, it might use the XAML Islands model, it might use WPF, or it could be a non-XAML app that uses Composition Islands or other aspects of the Windows App SDK. In any of these cases, we aim to make access to the Windows APIs in the Windows App SDK the same easy experience. The Windows App SDK will include both WinRT APIs and native C APIs.
As the Windows APIs continue to evolve with new OS versions, developers must use techniques such as version adaptive code to account for all the differences in versions to reach their application audience. This can add complexity to the code and the development experience.
Windows App SDK APIs will work on Windows 11 and downlevel to Windows 10, version 1809. This means that as long as your customers are on Windows 10, version 1809, or any later version of Windows, you can use new Windows App SDK APIs and features as soon as they are released, and without having to write version adaptive code.
New Windows APIs and features are usually shipped within major Windows OS updates that release about once a year (often less frequently). Windows App SDK ships new releases about once every six months. This release cadence ensures that you continuously have access to the latest innovations in the Windows development platform.
We are building the Windows App SDK as an open source project. We have a lot more information on our Github page about how we're building the Windows App SDK, and how you can be a part of the development process. Check out our contributor guide to ask questions, start discussions, or make feature proposals. We want to make sure that the Windows App SDK brings the biggest benefits to developers like you.
I would like to remove unwanted Windows 11 apps that is not productive to users like Solitaire, News, Xbox etc... so, I wrote a powershell script to do this and it is not running and executing properly, even though I tried running the same PS script on a regular desktop which works.
So, my thoughts are, is there a way to do this in Intune by selecting applications through CSP and removing it for all devices that is in Intune and Azure AD joined or if you even have a better script that would do the job by running it through Intune, I would appreciate if you could provide one.
thank you for providing this link, I'm following through the steps provided on the website and I'm new to writing PowerShell so just thought id ask a question, with the final part of the script that executes the removal of the application, does that part of the script need to be repeated for each application ? providing each display name for every application I'm looking to remove, or is there an easier way to do it ?
@Dylan_HarleyHi Dyan, if you look toward the bottom of the script, there is a for each loop, so the loop it running through each item in the $ProvisionedPackages List which comes from the $UninstalledPackages variable, Notices that when loop executes on trying to remove the package it is done in a Try statement, which is used in exception handling, if the try statements fails then an log is written to a file.

Since the preview launch in March 2023, we have made notable progress towards ensuring our most used and most loved features in classic Teams is also in the new experience. New Teams now has full feature parity for almost all features, including custom line-of-business (LOB) apps, third-party apps, breakout rooms, 77 video, call queues, PSTN calling, contextual search in chats and channels, cross-post a channel conversation, and more. We have focused on providing high-quality performance and enhancing the basics in areas such as reliability, security, and IT management to make sure that new Teams meets the evolving requirements of your organization.
Additionally, many new features and enhancements will be available exclusively in the new Teams experience, such as support for multi-tenant organizations (MTO) and multi-tenant, multi-account (MTMA), which enable seamless cross-tenant communication and collaboration beyond organizational boundaries across multiple tenants and accounts.
Furthermore, the new Teams experience is rolling out to public preview for our Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI), GCC, and GCC-High customers. DoD customers and web support will be coming later this calendar year.
