This is your shortcut to unleashing the full potential of Microsoft Store applications. With Windows' built-in Microsoft Store, you can download and install various apps and games. But what if you want a quicker and more efficient way to launch them? That's where this tool comes in.
This nifty tool allows you to seamlessly launch any Microsoft Store app using various methods, such as Command Prompt, Run dialog box, or PowerShell. Moreover, it even lets you add a Microsoft Store application to the Windows Right-Click (Context) Menu. Say goodbye to tedious searches through your Start menu – it simplifies app access like never before.
Before fully leveraging its capabilities, you'll need to understand the concept of Package Family Name and App ID. The Package Family Name is a cryptic string formed from two key components of a package's identity: the name and the publisher. For instance, the Package Family Name for the Windows Photos app is "Microsoft.Windows.Photos_8wekyb3d8bbwe," which breaks down as follows:
Name: Microsoft.Windows.Photos
Publisher ID: 8wekyb3d8bbwe
These details are essential when configuring the tool for specific applications.
While various methods exist to locate your app's Package Family Name and App User Model ID (AUMID), none offer a direct code for executing a store application. This simple application streamlines the process, making it easy and efficient.
Follow these steps:
Download the software.
Run the executable file that matches your operating system's architecture.
Once installed, you can launch any Microsoft Store app with ease. For example, if you want to run the Windows Alarm & Clock application, navigate to it in the software interface, right-click, and select "Copy Command." That's all there is to it!
Whether you're a tech-savvy user or just someone looking to streamline their app usage, it covers you. It's the ultimate companion for Windows enthusiasts, providing a hassle-free way to access and launch your favorite Microsoft Store applications.
