I know a file's relative path:

Uri("/Assets/book.png", UriKind.Relative)

But what is its absolute path? I want to use it here:

using (StreamReader sr = new StreamReader(completePath)
{
}

The absolute image path is

 ms-appx:///Assets/book.png 

where ms-appx points to the Local app install folder. And you can use as

var uri = new Uri("ms-appx:///Assets/book.png", UriKind.Absolute);
