    I am trying to navigate the default.html file to update.html if the app is running for the first time. I am using Jquery 2 Library. The code is:

    runTime = parseInt(getSettings("runTime"));
if (runTime == 0) {
    document.location = "settings.html";
} else {
    runTime++;
    setSettings("runTime", runTime);
}

    getSettingsis my custom function that grabs the local settings. In the Javascript Console, I see NAvigation Occured to update.html but the app strucks at Splash Screen.

    Hi Tika,

    I can see your problem by simply create a test project, the app freeze on the splash screen.

    As I can see the app already navigate to the correct page, if you set a breakpoint here, you should be able to see the page have been navigated.

    Here I have a dirty solution for you:

        app.onactivated = function (args) {
        if (args.detail.kind === activation.ActivationKind.launch) {
            if (args.detail.previousExecutionState !== activation.ApplicationExecutionState.terminated) {
                // TODO: This application has been newly launched. Initialize
                // your application here.
            } else {
                // TODO: This application has been reactivated from suspension.
                // Restore application state here.
            }
            args.setPromise(WinJS.UI.processAll());

            var splash = args.detail.splashScreen;

            // Register an event handler to be executed when the splash screen has been dismissed.
            splash.addEventListener("dismissed", onSplashScreenDismissed, false);

            //WinJS.Navigation.navigate("page.html","aaa");

        }
    };

    function onSplashScreenDismissed() {
        // The splash screen has dismissed and the skeleton landing page is now in view.
        document.location = "page.html";
    }
