The point is, when i download some xap file directly on my phone q how this file can be copied to the pc ?
I tried almost evrything, nothing work. ITried with storage enabler, with bluetooth, both ways the xap is invisible. I tried to put it in music folder ( i can see her from my PC) via storage enabler, but the file is sitting hidden . Tried to rename it , same thing - nothing.

I use unlocked lumia 710

use program manager to create xap of the installed app..
just open prog manager tap on the app name you want to pack it in xap.
then click on pack( at the bottom third option)
the only thing is that u've to wait for some time after clicking on pack.
i've packed gun bros game approx. about 186 mb,prog manger took 4 min. to pack it to xap...
the only con is that when u install that xap created by prog manager,,market place shows update for that app...it is not necessary to update...but its the only thing that is to be said as cons for program manager
and one more thing all the created xaps are located at Applications/data/12345678-87BF-4D87-A529-0DFF41EFD592/isolatedstore/data/xap/..
copy these xap to safe place...happy xapping...

If ur fone is jailbreaked means u've access to system files through pc then goto this location

Applications/data/12345678-87BF-4D87-A529-0DFF41EFD592/isolatedstore/data/xap/..
all the created xaps are located there..
As i said at the begining, my phone is unlocked, but i havent access , at least vis storage enabler. I cant make WDMC work properly at all and i dont know the other way .

I couldn't make my WMDC work too but I was installing it about 20 times and finally I got it ^^ Everytime there was a message: unrecognized device - device unplugged but I don't know how I got it.

If you still can't do this, you have your xap files as debugger told you before where so now you can do everything with it.
For example you can download from Bazaar Move to cloud and then with it you just sent your files to SkyDrive and on pc just download them :)

I think there is another way to get your xaps on pc. I downloaded WebServer from Bazaar and you just run it and on PC you type IP as a webpage adress and you can manage your phone from PC so I think you can download files too. I only copied an aplication to my phone but think this will work too.

Woow, i didnt knew about this awesome app. Now install it and open all my windows folders and files. The issue here is how to find exactly one file he he . But will search one by one.
I found the xap , but when i try to download for example the game fruit ninja which is 19 mb, id give me file 19 kb.
See the prtscr

I checked the screenshot and I see that you want to download file from temporary Internet Explorer files.
This is xap, so firstly - install it, next - make xap from installed app/game (with Program Manager) and then try to download this file.
Your file will be in Applications\Data\12345678-(...)\Data\IsolatedStore\Xap and you have to move it to Applications\Data\9BFACECD-(...)\Data\IsolatedStore
