as you can see here:

You'll need the appropriate MapTileSource but I don't think it's publicly available.

I am building an application that can use Google, Bing and Azure maps to display my data.
I'm now at the stage that I need to look into how to display these maps when I don't have an internet connection.
Do you know how I can use these map services while off-line?
Is it possible to cache the information perhaps?
If you are targeting the Windows platform, the UWP map control fully supports offline usage.

Using the bing maps web control offline is not supported (and storing bing maps tiles offline is against the terms of use).
In my Windows 8.1 Application, I tried to integrate Bing Map control and provided my Map key but when I am running the application it's just showing blocked icon/black screen.
Event I tried downloading Bing Maps sample from MSDN, but in that also I am getting the same error after provding bing map key. So I am not sure what's the actual issue, is issue with my bing map key?
Here's the screenshot of how I created my Key from Bing Map portal:
And below is the screenshot that I see on screen when I run my application:
Bing Map Block Error:
Ok, there are certain countries in which the Windows 8.1 map control is disabled as documented here: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj670541.aspx You can get around this by setting the HomeRegion property of the map to a country that isn't blocked. For example HomeRegion="US"

You will still need to have a Bing map key, but creating one for a mobile app is free.
We are working on a C# Xaml-based Windows Store app.
We have integrated bing maps within the app, but we were wondering if it were possible to launch the "Maps" app to a certain address?
We don't want to implement full directions, so it would be nice to just provide a button to launch maps so they can do it from there.
Take a look at the URI Scheme for maps application in conjunction with LaunchUriAsync, I think it should do the trick.
all is in the title, I'm looking for an equivalent in Windows 8 of the BingMapsDirectionsTask that exists in Windows Phone 7.
My purpose is to display a route without using the bing maps API.
Thanks in advance for your help,
Best regards
Since Bing is not built in, you need to manually access a Bing or Google API to manually get directions or whatever your use is.
