Desktop Bridge SQLite

I've packaged my WinForms app with Desktop Bridge, but running the app fails with a Unhanadled exception.. "Unable to open database. Connection string "Data Source="Test.db";

In my WinForms app the db is located in the bin/x86/debug folder. It can't find my database.

What do I modify in the Winforms app to make it Microsoft Store/UWP runnable?

I was able to use sqlite without using the storage API. I used the entire path and saved the DB to public docs.

another solution is to use an installer framework like Advanced Installer.

They have a simple wizard that allows to simply declare where you want it without awkward code work-arounds.

Use the following API for the Storagefolder:

with in your winforms application for file storage of the SQL lite database.
