If this makes the Microsoft Store a one-stop shop for installing apps, saving you from having to find apps in various online stores, with all the malware traps along the way, that could be a big win for Windows. That means there’s now no good reason for apps to be cheaper when you buy direct from the publisher, because Microsoft’s not taking a percentage of the profits.Īlready, several big-name apps that weren’t previously listed in the Microsoft Store have now appeared.

First, log into your Steam account and buy MyDockFinder ( $3.99). It’s a paid app, but worth every penny if you really want a macOS theme on Windows.
