Windows Store finally receives the essential applications!..

Post by sanjay kumar »

While Microsoft still has a lot of work to do to clean up the “trash” applications that pollute its store, the arrival of essential applications (Zoom, WinZip, Discord, Chrome, etc.) suggests the best.

The Windows Store of Windows 11 offers a nice graphical evolution. But, beyond this facelift, Microsoft's online application store is offering itself a real revolution. There are some really useful apps there.

As The Verge points out , for the last week alone, OBS Studio, Zoom, Canva, WinZip, or Adobe Acrobat Reader have finally arrived in the store.

Why weren't these apps already there? Because until now Microsoft has imposed the use of an application format called Universal Windows App.

Forcing developers, large and small, to recompile a version dedicated to the Windows Store, which few of them have done.

The arrival last year of the system called Windows Package Manager, which accommodates any format (exe, msi, etc.)

constitutes the new foundations of the Windows 11 Store. It enables the beta version of the Microsoft's OS to offer, a week after its launch, many more important applications than Windows 10 throughout its existence.

Major applications should continue to arrive like Firefox (and not the hundreds of fake paid apps currently bearing its name), or apps / game catalogs like Steam or Epic Games.

As The Verge reminds us , if this major technical development should allow the Windows Store to take off, there is still a titanic job at Microsoft: rid its store of bogus applications, user guides sold as software and other " crapware " .

A curation work that Apple has been doing for years which makes its store a real secure shopping portal for macOS. And that Windows 11 deserves it.
