+
+`@electron-forge/maker-msix` builds `.msix` packages, which can be distributed directly or via the Windows Store.
+
+You can only build the MSIX target on Windows machines with the Windows 10 SDK installed.
+
+Configuration options are documented in [`MakerMSIXConfig`](https://js.electronforge.io/interfaces/_electron_forge_maker_msix.MakerMSIXConfig.html).
+
+maker-msix utilizes @electron/windows-sign via the `windowsSignOptions` property. See the [windows-sign documentation](https://github.com/electron/windows-sign/blob/main/README.md) for details.

+```javascript
+{

+    windowsSignOptions: {
