I thought edge was ok before, but now I loathe it.
Sideloading unpacked extensions (not sideloading an appx package) will cause it to have weird issues that don't happen when loaded via
Add-AppxPackage
. UsingAdd-AppxPackage
is great except for that fact that storage.sync stops working altogether.That type of issue is manageable at least, unlike this lovely utility.

Add-AppxPackage
at first glance is a great utility. Sadly, it turs out thatAdd-AppxPackage
is stupid. I can't use a packed extension without signing it (understandable). But if you aren't careful when loading an unpacked appx this happens:Lo and behold, I need permission from myself to delete this folder. I'm probabbly going to have to go to safe mode just to delete a folder. The constant crashing when using debugging tools isn't really helping either.
In terms of actual problems, the port works for the most part. You can't download a backup, it's a known issue. Links to extension pages don't work either (E.g. "Import Backup"), still have to experiment with that. All I could find were old issues either resolved or marked as not reproducible. I've made an issue in the public bug tracker for now. Everything else seems to work perfectly (except dropbox, identity isn't supported).
You can use
installEdge
orpackageEdge
to install it. All the scripts I added work with Cygwin (C: is /cygdrive/c).packageEdge
uses the makeappx.exe that the App Certification Kit installs, so yours might be in a different location and cause the packaging script to fail.
