Drag & Drop uwp app to winforms for AUIMD

$

I am trying to "Drag & Drop" icons from the Start Menu in windows 10 to get it's Target; Naturally this works with .lnk but when dealing with a UWP . FileName, FileNameW and FileDrop is always "Nothing"

I can't figure this out. Is there a way to perhaps help me?

I have tried everything I could think of and I can't seem to get it to work.

I must have written and erase hundreds and hundreds of lines and started blank again (testing based on what little documentation I can find)

Getting the AUIMD from a app dragged on to the form or a control of the form is all I need.

dragging an app from start menu onto form and return the following (as you did)

[CODE=vbnet]Microsoft.WindowsCalculator_8wekyb3d8bbwe!App[/CODE]

Would be perfect!

From what I was told I can use CFSTR_SHELLIDLIST which is a Clipboard Format. Meanwhile I have no idea how to do this.

Any help would be awesome!
