I wrote a App for my family/friends and now we would like deploy it on or PCs. Publishing it in the store is not an option and not everyone has an Widows Live account. Sideloading isn't an option, because we do not own a Enterprise edition.
I found only the three already described ways. Either by publishing it in the store, using the development tools or having the enterprise edition.
Is there a fourth way to deploy a Windows UWP App without using the Windows Store or the need to install a developer certificate? If not, is there a possibility that something similar will be possible in the future?
The Windows 10 Deployment Tool looks like the thing I'm looking for, but i seems to be for mobile phones, or am i wrong?
now with Windows 10 Anniversary update, you could just double click *.appxbundle file to install
Steps:
create your package, select no, when prompt "Do you want to build packages to upload to Windows Store?"
go to the package folder, double click *.cer, and install the certificate to Trusted Root Certification Authorities
double click *.appxbundle to install
Client OS Requirement: Win10 14393
