Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Package framework is missing the framework dependency declaration in the manifest

Question

I receive the following error on the Windows App Certification Kit for Windows 8.1.

The app manifest test detected the following errors:XXX takes a dependency on Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Package (Microsoft.VCLibs.110.00) framework but is missing the framework dependency declaration in the manifest.

My solution builds with zero errors. However, I receive an error after I create an app package and run the Windows Application Certification Kit.

I have added and removed references to the C++ runtime extension. In addition, I do not see any fields in the app manifest editor to modify that would resolve this dependency error.

Answer 1

It sounds like you are including a library that was built with Visual Studio 2012. You will need to rebuild that library in Visual Studio 2013. If you just have the binary you will need to get an updated version from the author.

.. Or Rename "Microsoft.VCLibs.110" to Name="Microsoft.VCLibs.110.00",

Or

Add a reference in your project to Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Package

Add reference and find this Package. Adding this should resolve your problem
