Hello,
I am working on an application in Unity that is compiled to UWP. I am having issues with the UWP app in the certification kit test, in the sense that the report returns a warning for DPIAwarenessValidation.
I am using the latest Windows SDK as of today (10.0.19041.0) that contains this certification kit application.
Because I have been unsuccessful with trying to use DPI calls from the Unity app itself, I’ve decided to use a manifest.
These are the options for the manifest in Visual Studio.
Although the certification kit fails to detect DPI-Awareness calls, looking in Task Manager, the app seems to be DPI-Aware.
I even tested the feature by changing the scale of UI elements in the Windows 10 settings and it scaled properly.
I am not sure if this is the right way to do it but I am running out of options to try. What is to do next in this situation?

If it is, please try to submit the package to the store, there will be another online WACK test when you finish your submission. The store team will take the result of the online WACK test as standard because the local WACK test might be affected by many reasons.

2020-11-11T11:53:05.607+00:00 My workplace will not let me submit the package to the store yet, even for testing. Is there any way to know what I can do to change the outcome of a local WACK test (besides changing the code of the app, i.e. changing Windows settings) so that it can closely resemble an online WACK test?

2020-11-12T01:33:45.107+00:00 If you don't want to submit the package to the store, then you need to worry about the WACK test since you've tested your app. As I mentioned in my comment, the local WACK test result might be affected by different reasons, local test results are not as accurate as online test results.
