[Secure Input] How to create Appx package from Visual Studio

[hdmyt]

I try to create Appx package from Visual studio, but Build FAILED.

From menu
PROJECT > Store > Create App Pakages
Select No and click Next at first and then click Create.
Build result failed.

The error message is shown below.

main.map.txt (given as argument) does not contain Extension folder and PasswordInputProtection.exe,
so I think MakeAppx failed.
How to add Extension folder & PasswordInputProtection.exe to main.map.txt?

Did you find any solution? I am also facing same problem. I am on brink of submitting my extension to windows store but due to this error, I am now stuck.

You need to package as described here : https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/uwp/porting/desktop-to-uwp-packaging-dot-net .
Simply adding the full trust process declaration to a project manifest will throw this error.
