These details are beyond the scope of this article and are elaborated in MSDN: Quickstart: Update a live tile from a background task. Update the application's package manifest and add a new background task declaration referring to the newly created background task.Implement the IBackgroundTask interface to create a component that updates the application tiles.

Create a separate Windows Runtime Component to your application.However, in order to send notification to your tiles, you must do some additional work: Notifications sent to create live tile updates are XML documents that specify the notification template, its content and other various visual properties (such as the language or the branding scheme). This article explains how live tiles can be created and how the TilesNotification Pack simplifies the process. The live content can be text, images or various combinations of the two. These tiles can be of various sizes and display live content in response to notifications. I mayĭo it again sometime using a different administrator account that I would be less annoyed to see set back to defaults.Tiles are the way Windows Store applications are represented on the home screen in Windows 8. Unfortunately doing the elevated RIES was not one of the things that I traced. Again, we would have to rely on ProcMon to show what really happens. In terms of "resetting" things, I would be careful about trying to do it "elevated". So similarly, depending on what wsreset does

My experience with that Guest example suggests we should not attempt to elevate the wsreset command because doing so may end up changing not the account which was logged in but the account which does the elevation.įor example, to my surprise and dismay when I tried to "authorize" my Guest to do a full RIES for itself, as far as I can tell, the account profile that got the RIES treatment was my own, not the Guest one. Maybe even give you some diagnostics, unlike the Guest example-(zero writes? Incredible.) Have a Microsoft Account (aka Live ID) associated with it but in trace terms I would expect it to go further. Again, I would expect the attempt to connect to the Store to fail because it won't Then next create a new local account for a new standard user and try it with that one too. Since I don't know what specificĭiagnostics that program provides I would just try using ProcMon. So this gives the potential of two cases hopefully closely similar to trace and compare. That I see when I try it looks externally very similar to what users who are having difficulty with the Store claim to see. We would expect that one to fail for various reasons. Activate your Guest account and try doing the wsreset command with it. I just thought of a potentially useful set of diagnostics to compare. Some things that I discovered when experimenting with Guest is that permissions could be playing a part in these symptoms too. Other users made changes to their account (password, for example) or created a new one. Went to the Store through the web and it won't open it from there, either.
