I’m building a Windows Store app and I’m failing the App Certification Tool test

  • 0

I’m building a Windows Store app and I’m failing the App Certification Tool test for the Direct3D feature. This is a general app with no specific calls to any graphics feature.

I’ve tried running the tests on two different machines so I don’t think my problem is hardware specific. More, I’ve tried testing a very basic app stripped of all UI controls except for a text block and I’m receiving the same error. The machines are running RTM builds of Windows 8 and VS2012.

Essentially, I’m asking, what should I look at next to resolve this issue?

Thanks–

    Installing all available Windows Updates and try to run WACK again.

    I had luck with this method on more than one machine. Apparently, pending updates cause the issue. install the updates, let the machine restart and finish the updating process. The issue should be gone after that.
