I have a problem, when I create a Windows App from a .Net Maui App and try to upload it to my Microsoft store (msix file). I get an error in store that the Package Family Name (PFN) is wrong and the Publisher is wrong, even though the Package.appxmanifest seems to have the correct values. The values of the Package.appxmanifest are automatically downloaded, when I publish to the store.
The Package Family Name (PFN) is not directly set in the Package.appxmanifest, but Visual Studio shows me, that it has the right value, like in the bug expected. Also the Publisher seems to be correct, like "CN=4fD3..." but the error shown an another Publisher, the name of my company "Softwa...."
I can execute the .msix file and it works fine. The upload of the file to my store cause the error. I can't find what is wrong.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Publish .Net MAUI App (Windows) to the Store -> publish button in Visual Studio 22 (latest version)
  2. Connect with the store, the values for the app are downloaded to the Package.appxmanifest. The app name was reserved in the store and it is shown as an app in my store
  3. I try to upload manually the .msix file to the store, but the verification process after downloading shows errors.
