The problem rises, when Windows UWP application need to update this Win32 executable. However, this executable is uploaded to Windows 10 IOT core device using Windows Device Portal. This works, Win32 application process is launched properly. Before I add exe to allow list: reg.exe ADD "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\EmbeddedMode\ProcessLauncher" /v AllowedExecutableFilesList /t REG_MULTI_SZ /d "c:\PATH TO FILE" Solution to run Win32 application is to use ProcessLauncher::RunToCompletionAsync.


The application need to download and run Win32 application. I am the owner of every machine on which it will ever run (so I can make any modification to machine) I have Windows UWP application which will run only on Windows 10 IOT core.
