Description of the new feature

follow-up from #19764 :

  • i was terribly surprised by how Terminal deps upon the store
  • i don't see what's the benefit that it brings
  • now, i did find a workaround/fall back

but honestly i'm kinda surprised by the store dep, and i'm opening this discussion to beg folks to consider removing this sharp corner

Proposed technical implementation details

Well, so were we. Our assumption was that our "appLicensing" capability in the manifest would prevent this. @DHowett has already engaged the relevant teams to ask if we did anything wrong, etc.

FWIW, you can always use our portable Terminal builds as a workaround in such situations.

@DHowett commented on GitHub (Jan 23, 2026):

Oh, yes, we are just as surprised as you are.

Behind the curtain a bit: we added a capability called appLicensing to our manifest to expressly prevent licensing checks. Before that, you couldn't even Add-AppxPackage on an airgapped machine. Why that doesn't apply here is the current mystery I'm talking to folks about.

Behind the curtain a bit: we added a capability called `appLicensing` to our manifest to _expressly prevent_ licensing checks.
