It dawned on me that I should output the $prismName variable to a file to
see if it was empty, and sure enough it was. I used this to test that:
$prismName = (Get-AppxPackage -Name PRISMContingency).PackageFamilyName
$prismName | Out-File -FilePath C:\test.txt
C:\Windows\system32\CheckNetIsolation.exe "loopbackexempt" "-a"
"-n=$($prismName)"
When I look at my custom actions in WIX, my windows app should be installed
before the Get-AppxPackage command is ran to get the package family name as
you can see below. The InstallAppx is a powershell script to sideload a
windows all and I need to run the UnblockService afterward the app is
installed. Again, when I run this powershell script after my installer is
finished, and therefore my InstallAppx powershell script is finished, it
works fine. It acts like install isn't "finished" before I try to run my
unblockservice.
