i m not sure... but try this....(m also not coder) it just an idea
1 : if you can access the directory where the app installed then make zip from the app install folder
2: rename it to Appx.
3: move to backup folder..
this is worked to make an .xap from install file...so,try on appx..let me know it works or not.
i m sure its works.. but i cant make an application due to i dont code this ....
Yes, creating a zip and renaming it to appx won't work.
But even when I used their tools to create appx and then sign it, I was able to install it but the app crashed immediately. I'm not sure why.
yaa....i test just 10 min ago. simple app zip not work...need some modification.
trying to modify for install using makeappx.exe..but still getting error

You need to sign the appx too, google it.

For Windows 8.1 appx and Windows 10 Appx it is not the same Makeappx.exe.

Yeah, just tried it. it works. Thanks
So, creating appx needs a PC, so unfortunately it's currently impossible to create a phone app for this.
App is working great with v1.5.2, it will be even better if you add a manual refresh button to load apps data and a option to delete a app (useful for deleting sys app like feedback,contact support)
Hi, thanks for this beatifull app.
With the last insider preview (10.0.14915.1000) last release of the app crash on start (1.5.2.0).
Sorry about that.
I currently have just one phone, and it's my daily driver, so I can't upgrade to RS2 to debug it. I'll fix it when I upgrade my phone to RS2, or if I find someone with RS2 in my friends.
This happens when a file is already in use. try rebooting your phone.
Anyway, other data files (which are not reported in the log) are restored correctly.

24App Data Manage Tool is a tool for Windows 10 Mobile devices to create backups from current state of apps and games, and restore them at a later time, or to another phone, or to your phone after a factory reset.
Although Microsoft introduced some APIs to backup apps into OneDrive, many apps still don't use it (Hill Climb Racing, WhatsApp, are you listening? )
This tool helps you to create local backup archives from any of your apps and games; then you can copy them to your PC and then to any phone so you can restore that archive.
Additionally, you can reset the state of apps, which is almost the same as reinstalling them, but is faster and also it can be done on some system apps (which you can't reinstall them)
Your phone must be interop unlocked. Here's a quick how to (for Lumias except x50 series):
- Download Interop Tools by Gustave M. (ARM version) and its Dependencies from here and copy them to your phone.
- Set your phone to Developer Mode (from Settings, Update & security, For Developers)
- Tap on each of Dependencies from File Explorer, then tap on Interop Tools appx.
- Open Interop Tools from app list, go to "Interop Unlock", tap on "Restore NDTKSvc" and then reboot your phone.
- Open Interop Tools again and go to "Interop Unlock", now tap on "Interop/Cap unlock".
After you Interop Unlocked your phone, installing App Data Manage Tool is easy.
- Just get it from the download link below, extract the ZIP and copy its contents to your phone, and tap on the appx from File Explorer to install. (you might need to install Dependencies first)

* This tool is in Beta, malfunctions might happen, and I'm not responsible for any data loss or damage.
* This is the first app I created for unlocked devices, and I'm excited to hear your comments and suggestions5App Data Manage Tool v2.1 released with numerous improvements.
The tool now includes a caching mechanism, so app loads much faster (after initial loading first time you open the app). I'm also releasing this as a separate open-source library, so other apps can take advantage of this method to load information about installed apps quickly.
Other improvements are:
- Added the ability to backup legacy apps on SD card.
- You can now easily create a zip file from installation files of apps. It comes handy when you want to repack an app.
- UI Improvements.
2i have on suggetion : this app able to do backup apps on phone + sd card (app data) _ you can add a new function to the app to make file from installed apps to .Appx OR .Appxbundle .. so after uninstallation of app ...we dont need to download the app from store.. and we can share the apps..
can this is done? if yes then i think its usefull...
and if done than this app is mindblowing because ...its contain everything app+data...:highfive:
