I don't know about XBox, but does anybody actually use anything from the Windows Store? The only app that I have gotten is the SlingTV app, except I ditched it for the older native app, because the UWP Store one was so hideously broken and slow.

- nozzlegear 10y agoI use the Windows Store for media apps, specifically Twitch and YouTube, because I find their UI and UX much better than the original websites. Plus I like the notifications and live tiles. I think my favorite Windows Store app is KeePassReader* though, which adds Windows Hello authentication to my KeePass database. It's a very simple app, and isn't exactly easy on the eyes, but I like being able to swipe my finger or just look at my camera whenever I need to open my KeePass database. * https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/store/p/keepassreader/9nblggh4s820 https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/store/p/keepassreader/9nblgg...

- pjmlp 10y agoYes, I have been slowly migrating to store apps, specially since they are sandboxed. I also own a couple of WP, so I now get to use those apps on the desktop as well.
