Microsoft Store does not allow updating 32-bit applications
Miscellaneous / / August 01, 2021
And some 64-bit ones too.
In Windows 11, 32-bit programs were added to the official app store, and developers also had the opportunity to independently deliver content. This will contribute to a significant expansion of the application library in the future, but it carries an important disadvantage for users.
In particular, both 32-bit programs and everything that is published bypassing the standard store system will not receive updates through the Microsoft Store. In the store, such programs will be marked with a plate "Provided and supported by [developer name]", and for downloading new versions will have to use the built-in application update system, and not a single Microsoft manager Store.
Because of this, users will have to deal with many installers, which, in fact, removes the main thing. the advantage of a single application store with the ability to update everything at once, restart the computer and work further. But the innovation will make it easier for developers to publish their applications to the Microsoft Store.
