There is a Windows store. It kind of failed, mostly because using it requires using gimped APIs. If they got rid of that more people would use it.
What does seem to work is the certificate and code reputation. It does actually prevent users from running things but is easy enough to click through if you really know better.

I was a little vague because I knew there were some additional restrictions for using the Windows store but wasn't sure what they were.]
