I've built a static version of Qt 6.5.2 with the following configure options. However it hasn't changed anything.
configure.bat -static -release -platform win32-msvc -prefix "%_BUILD_DIR%" -make tools -nomake examples -nomake tests -skip qt3d -skip qtactiveqt -skip qtcanvas3d -skip qtcharts -skip qtcoap -skip qtconnectivity -skip qtdatavis3d -skip qtdoc -skip qtgamepad -skip qtgrpc -skip qthttpserver -skip qtimageformats -skip qtinsighttracker -skip qtlocation -skip qtlanguageserver -skip qtlottie -skip qtmacextras -skip qtmqtt -skip qtnetworkauth -skip qtopcua -skip qtpositioning -skip qtpurchasing -skip qtquick3d -skip qtquick3dphysics -skip qtquicktimeline -skip qtquickeffectmaker -skip qtremoteobjects -skip qtscxml -skip qtsensors -skip qtserialbus -skip qtserialport -skip qtspeech -skip qttools -skip qttranslations -skip qtvncserver -skip qtwayland -skip qtwebchannel -skip qtwebengine -skip qtwebsockets -skip qtwebview -skip qtwinextras -skip qtx11extras -skip qtxmlpatterns -schannel Just like when I used the built-in non-static kit "Qt 6.5.2 MSVC2019 64bit", I can build and run my app from within Qt Creator but when I package, sign and install it locally, the app itself appears in a separate window to the built-in Windows splash screen, and when I close the app it results in a "Distributed COM" error in the Windows Log. Here is a short video showing what I mean: https://youtu.be/ZSNjuDB6508 It would be great to get a response from the Qt team. Either to let me know this is a Qt bug or to let me know "the right way" to put together a QML app for the Microsoft Store. Thanks, Paul.
