You can find the appx file in the dependencies folder of the app package under the ARM folder.

The .appxbundle is like the name suggest a bundle of .appx files. This is actually a zip file containing .appx file.

You can choose not to create .appxbundle files but create separate .appx files if needed

enter image description here

Set "Generate App Bundle" to never

An .appx is just a zip64 file, and a .appxbundle is a zip file containing such zip files.

If you use makeappx.exe you can extract all the files inside your .appxbundle and see the individual .appx files within.

MakeAppx unbundle /p bundle_name.appxbundle /d output_directory

See App packages and deployment (Windows Runtime apps) and App packager (MakeAppx.exe)
