Microsoft has unveiled a new store design Windows A store that now looks even simpler than ever before. The environment is clearer and Microsoft believes that this is also the way Microsoft attracts new users to its latest system. A green menu with main items and search is permanently located at the top of the screen. Even if it is an insignificant detail at first glance, it also contributes to the fact that it is new Windows The Store is even easier to control on a desktop with the help of a mouse.
This, along with the return of the Start menu and the ability to open modern applications on the desktop, can mean one thing. Microsoft may redesign theirs Windows Store so that even more applications for the desktop could be found in it, and the Store thus became the main center for all applications for Windows. Of course, if we think of Steam, for example, the game store. Alongside the new categories will be a new one Windows The Store will contain different collections of applications, and applications that are temporarily discounted will appear on the home screen, which will ensure sufficient information about the discount.
Microsoft also confirmed that it plans to shorten the approval process for apps. Thanks to this, approval will no longer take 2 to 5 days, but only a few hours. However, what remains a question in the end is the time when Microsoft will release the upgraded one Windows Store. Microsoft introduced it, but did not say when it will be released. There is a possibility that this will happen after release Windows 8.1 Update, but it is not excluded that the new environment will only appear in the next update, which should bring mini-Start and other news. Finally, we should not forget how Microsoft presents the vision of its new Windows Store. In the video that you can see below, Microsoft presents its vision as "One Store", which it wants to point out that it is preparing a truly unified system. Developers who release apps using the One Store will be able to program their apps to be compatible with Windows, Windows Phone and Xbox One without having to release apps separately for each platform. This should be appreciated above all by players and customers who Windows Stores buy software because if they buy a game or application once, they don't have to buy it again. Halo: Spartan Assault is one of the first apps to feature this feature.
