Hi Xiao,

Have you read over this thread in regards to your Developer account information?  You can also check the following site for more pre-release registration codes that will be made available through the dev camps.

Hi Xiao,

In order for your friend to install your app, your friend's computer needs to have the developer license installed. For instructions on how to obtain a developer license, see http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/apps/hh696646(v=vs.110).aspx.

After the developer license is installed, you can zip up your package output directory then your friend can run the .bat file to install your package.
