Allow Desktop Bridge (centennial) apps to be installed in different location

3

Trying to install a Desktop Bridge UWP app when the system is configured to store apps on another drive will cause the following error message:

The app package type is not supported on this filesystem (0x80073d13)

Windows settings:

Storage settings

Is there a way to enable centennial apps to be installed in another location or is this a known limitation of the Desktop Bridge? It doesn't seem like support for external storage can be declared in some way (e.g. within the manifest).

According to MSFT docs (see last FAQ), this is not possible. Maybe something has changed since 2015 (the last time the article seems to have been updated), but your initial tests seem to confirm the docs.
