NAME Debug-MMAppPrelaunch
SYNOPSIS
Provides the ability to debug the application prelaunch of a specific application by triggering the prelaunch to occur and to exit debug mode for
the application.
SYNTAX
Debug-MMAppPrelaunch [-AsJob] [-CimSession <CimSession[]>] [-DisableDebugMode] [-ThrottleLimit <Int32>] -PackageFullName <String>
-PackageRelativeAppId <String> [<CommonParameters>]
DESCRIPTION
Prelaunching is a new feature added in Windows???? 8.1 Preview that improves the launch performance of apps from the Windows Store by proactively
launching frequently used apps in the background if they are not already running or suspended. This makes starting an app as fast as switching to
a suspended app from the user????????s perspective. This command enables you to prelaunch an app into debug mode.
You identify the application to prelaunch by including the ????????PackageFullName and -PackageRelativeAppId parameters.
To turn off debugging, specify the application and also include the ????????DisableDebugMode.
PARAMETERS
-DisableDebugMode [<SwitchParameter>]
Specifies that debug mode for the selected application is turned off.
Required? false
Position? named
Default value
Accept pipeline input? True (ByPropertyName)
Accept wildcard characters? false
-PackageFullName <String>
Specifies the AppX package full name containing the application to be prelaunched in debug mode.
Required? true
Position? named
Default value
Accept pipeline input? True (ByPropertyName)
Accept wildcard characters? false
-PackageRelativeAppId <String>
Specifies the application ID of the application within the AppX package to be prelaunched. The application ID is found in the package manifest
file.
Required? true
Position? named
Default value
Accept pipeline input? True (ByPropertyName)
Accept wildcard characters? false
-AsJob [<SwitchParameter>]
Runs the cmdlet as a background job. Use this parameter to run commands that take a long time to complete.
The cmdlet immediately returns an object that represents the job and then displays the command prompt. You can continue to work in the
session while the job completes. To manage the job, use the *-Job cmdlets. To get the job results, use the Receive-Job cmdlet.
For more information about Windows PowerShell???? background jobs, see about_Jobs.
Required? false
Position? named
Default value
Accept pipeline input? false
Accept wildcard characters? false
-CimSession <CimSession[]>
Runs the cmdlet in a remote session or on a remote computer. Enter a computer name or a session object, such as the output of a New-CimSession
or Get-CimSession cmdlet. The default is the current session on the local computer.
Required? false
Position? named
Default value
Accept pipeline input? false
Accept wildcard characters? false
-ThrottleLimit <Int32>
Specifies the maximum number of concurrent operations that can be established to run the cmdlet. If this parameter is omitted or a value of 0
is entered, then Windows PowerShell???? calculates an optimum throttle limit for the cmdlet based on the number of CIM cmdlets that are running
on the computer. The throttle limit applies only to the current cmdlet, not to the session or to the computer.
Required? false
Position? named
Default value
Accept pipeline input? false
Accept wildcard characters? false
<CommonParameters>
This cmdlet supports the common parameters: Verbose, Debug,
ErrorAction, ErrorVariable, WarningAction, WarningVariable,
OutBuffer, PipelineVariable, and OutVariable. For more information, see
about_CommonParameters (http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=113216).
INPUTS
None
OUTPUTS
NOTES
None
Example 1: Prelaunch an app and enable debug mode
PS C:\\>Debug-MmAppPreLaunch -PackageFullName Microsoft.ZuneMusic_2.0.94.0_x64__8wekyb3d8bbwe?? -PackageRelativeAppId Microsoft.ZuneMusic
This command prelaunches an application in debug mode.
Example 2: Clear debug mode from the prelaunch activated app
PS C:\\>Debug-MmAppPreLaunch -PackageFullName Microsoft.ZuneMusic_2.0.94.0_x64__8wekyb3d8bbwe-PackageRelativeAppId Microsoft.ZuneMusic
-DisableDebugMode
This command disables the debug mode from the app that you previously prelaunch activated.
Example 3: Getting the PackageFullName and PackageRelativeAppId of your App
PS C:\\>ForEach ($Package in Get-AppxPackage) {ForEach ($AppRelativeId in (Get-AppxPackageManifest($Package)).Package.Applications.Application.Id)
{'PackageFullName: ' + $Package.PackageFullName; 'PackageRelativeId: ' + $AppRelativeID; ''}}
This command shows how you can find the PackageFullName and PackageRelativeAppId information for your package.
