Let’s remind ourselves how Windows 10 UWP apps are deployed. But that’s something for future articles to discuss – right now, if you’re deploying Windows 10 or using it on Citrix XenApp or VMware Horizon, how do you shoehorn these annoying and quite-frankly-useless Windows 10 UWP apps out of your base image? So unpopular, in fact, that I hear Microsoft are actually pouring a lot of effort into (again) reinventing their apps platform, next time with something called MSIX (which may, to all intents and purposes, just be App-V 6.0 rebadged).

Not even a little bit popular, in my experience. It would be safe to say that UWP apps aren’t the most popular move that Microsoft have ever made, whether this be with end-users, administrators, or application developers. Further servicing updates (Windows patches) or feature updates (OS upgrades) will possibly invalidate this, although I will strive to keep this article as up-to-date as humanly possible. Note:- this article refers to the removal process for Microsoft UWP (Universal Windows Platform) apps on Windows 10 version 1803, fully patched as of. What’s the current thinking on how we can deal with them in our environments? m = libvlc_media_new_path (inst, '/path/to/test.Windows 10’s Universal Windows Platform apps may possibly be Microsoft’s most unpopular decision – ever.

You should find the necessary files (libvlc.so, libvlc.pc, header files.) in a binary package called libvlc-dev (Debian, Ubuntu.), libvlc-devel (RPM distros) or similar.

See libVLC Tutorial 086c for some more instructions on getting the build working. Alternatively, you can build VLC from source. development headers and import libraries, from the plain 7-ZIP packages in the sdk directory.

It would be a waste of bandwidth and space for most users. VLC binary installers for Windows do not include the libVLC SDK.

Older versions are found at libVLC Tutorial 0.9 and libVLC Tutorial 086c respectively for historical interest only. It cannot be compiled with older versions. This code is written for libVLC version 1.1.0 or later.
