Targeting both Windows 10 and Windows 11 in appxManifest.xml

[apachx 1]

I'm developing a Windows application using Delphi 12.1 CE. In my current appxmanifest.xml, I have the following line:

<TargetDeviceFamily Name="Windows.Desktop" MinVersion="10.0.17763.0" MaxVersionTested="10.0.19041.0" />

As far as I understand, this targets Windows 10 only (max version 10.0.19041.0 => Windows 10 May 2020 Update). I want to make sure my app is officially recognized as compatible with both Windows 10 and Windows 11 in the Microsoft Store.

To target max version Windows 11 23H2, is it enough to simply change the line to:

<TargetDeviceFamily Name="Windows.Desktop" MinVersion="10.0.17763.0" MaxVersionTested="10.0.22631.0" />

Will this be sufficient for the Microsoft Store to treat my app as compatible with both Windows 10 and Windows 11?

Thanks in advance!

Did you try it and see if it does?

No, I haven't tested this hypothesis in the Microsoft Store yet.

The default line in the AppxManifest.template.xml file looks like this:

<TargetDeviceFamily Name="Windows.Desktop" MinVersion="%minVersion%" MaxVersionTested="%maxVersionTested%" /> 

But for some reason, it ends up generating the following in the final manifest:

<TargetDeviceFamily Name="Windows.Desktop" MinVersion="10.0.17763.0" MaxVersionTested="10.0.19041.0" /> 

This seems odd, considering that Embarcadero says Delphi 12 supports Windows 11 provisioning.

That's why I wanted to ask here first — in case there are any hidden pitfalls I should be aware of.
