    How can i send an appxbundle to beta testers and allow them to install the app? (Sideloading)
    They get the following error:
    It's signed with the automatically generated selfsigned WSATestCertificate.pfx
    Can this certificate be installed on the HoloLens without VisualStudio?

    If you enable Developer mode on the HoloLens it's possible to install the bundles without signing.

    By creating the package via
    Store->Create App Packages...->No (Not for uploading)
    ?

    You can enable developer mode on the hololens through the settings, the process is similar to how you enable developer mode on your PC.

    In the Hololens, open the Settings App, then follow these steps:
    -Go to Update and Security
    -On the left side of the window Air Tap 'For Developers'
    -Then enable developer mode

    That are the instructions i gave to the user. Is the Device Portal even accessible without Developer mode? So a self-signed certificate should get trusted in Developer mode?

    You need to enable the Device Portal through the settings on the Hololens. It is located in the same spot as the Developer mode, without turning it on you can't access the Device Portal Remotely from a browser.

    Yes, the error message appears in the Device Portal in the browser. It works on my HoloLens but not on the user's device.

    My apologies, I don't quite understand the issue. Can you provide a little more information and if possible a screen shot please?

    It is hard to know what the error is without some sort of debug spew or the error itself.
