What is the current state of the codebase?

We are no longer building AppX for the Windows Store.
If we are to reintroduce this functionality, we should use msix not appx.

We have deadcode for building an AppX version of NVDA

Why are changes required?

To remove unused code that is unlikely to be used in future.

What technical changes are required?

Searching and removing appX code

Are the proposed technical changes API breaking?

Potentially but unlikely

Are there potential risks or issues with the proposed implementation?

We want to reintroduce AppX NVDA
