By default, Surface Hub only runs UWP apps that have been published to and signed by
the Microsoft Store. Apps submitted to the Microsoft Store go through security and
compliance tests as part of the

app certification process

, so this helps safeguard your

Surface Hub against malicious apps.

By enabling developer mode, you can also install developer-signed UWP apps.

1. From your Surface Hub, start

Settings

.

2. Type the device admin credentials when prompted.
3. Navigate to

Update & security

>

For developers

.

4. Select

Developer mode

and accept the warning prompt.

During development, the easiest way to test your app on a Surface Hub is using Visual
Studio. Visual Studio's remote debugging feature helps you discover issues in your app
before deploying it broadly. For more information, see

Test Surface Hub apps using

Visual Studio

.

Use Visual Studio to create an app package for your UWP app, signed using a test
certificate. Then use Windows Imaging and Configuration Designer (ICD) to create a
provisioning package containing the app package. For more information, see

Create

provisioning packages for Surface Hub

.

Once an app is ready for release, developers need to submit and publish it to the
Microsoft Store. For more information, see

Publish Windows apps and games

.

Important

After developer mode has been enabled, you will need to reset the Surface Hub to
disable it. Resetting the device removes all local user files and configurations and
then reinstalls Windows.
