How to Resolve SQLite Network Path Access Issues in UWP Applications

Lokender Tiwari 0

We are facing an issue accessing a SQLite file located on a network path in our UWP application. Despite enabling the necessary capabilities such as internetClient and privateNetworkClientServer, the file remains inaccessible in release mode.

The SQLite file is being accessed for reading and writing data using a UNC path:

\ServerName\SharedFolder\FileName.sqlite

Interestingly, this setup works as expected in debug mode but fails in release mode.

We would appreciate any guidance or suggestions on resolving this issue. Is there a specific configuration or additional capability that needs to be enabled for release mode?

Looking forward to your assistance.

Hello @Lokender Tiwari ,

Welcome to Microsoft Q&A!

After declaring broadFileSystemAccess, don't forget to enable file permissions in Settings>Privacy&Security>File System. You can try to use filepicker to access network files in release mode to see if you can access them normally.

Thank you.
