UNIX domain sockets bug on Windows

[Ahmed Muhsin]

Dear All,

Following our internal discussion concerning this issue, we can confirm that the behavior observed is as expected. This is because the runtime is not part of the package, and no dependency is defined for an external package - in this case, the runtime - within the app manifest. Consequently, it is treated as an external app. Our documentation covers this as a generic use case, without specifically referencing runtime scenarios.

The successful workaround of excluding the temp directory from virtualization was indeed the correct course of action. Alternatively, if you want an external process, initiated by your packaged application, to access files within the package (that is, to run in the same context as the main application), you can use the Package Support Framework (PSF) and set the 'inPackageContext' flag.
