Windows Store App
Windows Phone Store App
Windows Runtime Apps
Windows Runtime contains more than 90% of Windows
Phone Runtime

ActivationKind kind = e.Kind;
///...}
• App is suspended
• All code stopped
• No timers tick
• No events fire
• Process still alive and in memory
• Code has a chance to respond (next slide)
private async void OnSuspending(object sender, SuspendingEventArgs e){
var deferral = e.SuspendingOperation.GetDeferral();
await SuspensionManager.SaveAsync(); deferral.Complete();
}
• Same app is resumed
• Same process, same memory so values of variables are intact
• All code runs
• Code has a chance to respond.
