Abstract
The present disclosure concerns methods and systems for registering dynamically created packaged applications with an operating system. A dynamically created packaged application may not include a way to authenticate the packaged application but may declare a dependency on a host package. The host package may include a verified signature and be registered with the operating system. The host package may include a host runtime that references an executable included in the host package. The packaged application may not include executable files but may reference the host runtime. The operating system may register the packaged application based in part on its dependency on the host package. When the packaged application is activated, the packaged application may invoke the host runtime and the executable but do so with an application identity of the packaged application. The application identity may be different from a host runtime identity of the host runtime.
