APPX_E_RESOURCESPRI_NOT_ALLOWED

APPX_E_RESOURCESPRI_NOT_ALLOWED means that the package includes resources.pri but the manifest does not declare resource elements that permit it. The package footprint and manifest metadata are inconsistent.

Correct the package model

Remove an unnecessary resources.pri from the packaging input, or declare the required resource elements in the manifest.
Verify that build rules do not copy stale PRI output from an earlier configuration into the package.
Rebuild the package and validate it before signing.

Do not suppress the error: resource metadata must agree with the package footprint.
