Cant upload quest apk to store
When I try and upload my apk to the store I get the following error:
* APK install location should be `auto` (android:installLocation in AndroidManifest.xml). See documentation at: https://developer.oculus.com/distribute/publish-mobile-manifest/
I set the install location to automatic in the unity project settings. I have also set android:installLocation to auto in my custom androidmanifest.xml file. This is using unity 2022.2.0f1

Same issue with 2022.2.6f1
same with 2022.2.1f1 ... like really?
Its an issue with unity 2022.2.2+. Hopefully they'll have a fix soon. In the meantime you'll have to revert to an earlier unity version. Read about it here https://issuetracker.unity3d.com/issues/android-install-location-changes-when-exporting-project
Found a workaround, went to `C:\Program Files\Unity\Hub\Editor\2022.2.7f1\Editor\Data\PlaybackEngines\AndroidPlayer\Apk\LauncherManifest.xml` and changed the default config which the Unity uses before merging with the custom one. Woah, the APK uploaded, success!
What did you change to make it work?
Changed the install location as required by Oculus to `auto`
android:installLocation="auto"Later switched to Unity 2022.2.121f and the build/upload works without modifying the default Unity config. Here is my default unity config as its now:android:installLocation="auto"C:\Program Files\Unity\Hub\Editor\2022.2.12f1\Editor\Data\PlaybackEngines\AndroidPlayer\Apk\LauncherManifest.xml```<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?><manifestpackage="com.unity3d.player"android:installLocation="preferExternal"><supports-screensandroid:smallScreens="true"android:normalScreens="true"android:largeScreens="true"android:xlargeScreens="true"android:anyDensity="true"/><application android:label="@string/app_name"android:icon="@mipmap/app_icon"/></manifest>```i was able to update my game with this. i highly recommend doing this if you get the error
