Microsoft Store

Microsoft Store (formerly Windows Store In Windows 8, 8.1 and Windows 10 versions 1507-1703), is a digital distribution platform developed by Microsoft for Microsoft Windows PC's and Xbox consoles.

It was first introduced in Windows 8 as an app store for Universal Windows Platform apps. In Windows 10, the app received an overhaul and was expanded to offer other types of content.

In September 2017, the app was re-branded as Microsoft Store starting with Windows 10 Fall Creators Update.

In Windows 11, the app received a major overhaul and was expanded to accept classic desktop applications as opposed to only accepting UWP apps.
