how to deploy metro app to windows rt device WITHOUT STORE [closed]

Question

I developped a metro app and its for my company only. so I'm not going to upload it to windows store.

I want to use my app on Windows RT devices (over 400). I tried to open appx with powershell but powershell needs developer license

How can I deploy my app to rt devices ?

Answer 1

Therefore you need Windows 8 Enterprise, which enables you, to "sideload" an App directly on your devices

• You must enable the Allow all trusted applications to install Group Policy setting
• You must activate the sideloading product key on a device running Windows 8 Enterprise or Windows® 8 Pro. You must activate the sideloading product key on a device running Windows RT

thing is my company already bought windows RT devices is there anything to do for windows RT devices – Supraorbital

Yes, you need to activate sideloading on your RT-Devices:<br> - You need to buy a $30 side-loading product activation key that is per device, and which is non-transferable. So to side-load apps on your Surface RT (for example) you need to buy a $30 key. These keys come in packs of 100, so the minimum price is $3000. lhotka.net/weblog/CostToEnableSideloadingOnAWindows8Device.aspx blogs.msdn.com/b/windowsstore/archive/2012/04/25/… – Instill
