Developing Windows store app to access images from another app

Question

You are developing two Windows Store apps named PhotoApp and Picture Album. The apps must meet the following requirement: 
-PhotoApp must have access to images on the local computer on which PhotoApp is running. 
-Picture Album must be able to access the images from PhotoApp. You need to configure the deployment package settings for both apps to ensure that the requirements are met. What should you do? 

Answer 1

Windows Store Apps have only limited access to the file system. One app can't for example directly access the private files from another app.

One approach you could take to somehow solve this issue would be to use the users picture library as a common folder for both apps. In order to use the picture library, you have to enable the "Pictures Library" Capability in the manifest of both apps.
