From 552b45f6f795ffed299c9e93d8dbc80615a4b8b4 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Marco Russo Date: Fri, 21 Aug 2026 09:58:33 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] Link the Store listing from the download page 0.9.5 completed certification and is published, so apps.microsoft.com/detail /9NN5N0L2TMTF resolves. It joins the alternates under the download button rather than the button itself: Store availability is uneven on managed corporate machines, which is why the MSI stays the primary channel (decision 10). The label says what the Store route gives you that the MSI does not - the Store updates the app, and a Store install never makes the daily version check, which privacy.html already describes. The row wraps to two lines on desktop now. Any fourth entry does, including a bare 'Microsoft Store', so the informative label costs nothing. STORE-LISTING.md no longer says the addresses 404 and that nothing links to them; both stopped being true today. It records the ms-windows-store: form as deliberately unlinked, since it fails silently in a browser with no Store app. --- installer/msix/STORE-LISTING.md | 19 ++++++++++++------- site/index.html | 2 ++ 2 files changed, 14 insertions(+), 7 deletions(-) diff --git a/installer/msix/STORE-LISTING.md b/installer/msix/STORE-LISTING.md index 3b7c7c2..dc6d521 100644 --- a/installer/msix/STORE-LISTING.md +++ b/installer/msix/STORE-LISTING.md @@ -126,18 +126,23 @@ What it submits is packages only.
