Hi All,,


I'm curious about people's experiences with the Windows Store and with 
nondesktop apps. Every now and then I try to use both, and I mostly 
don't get very far, but I'm not sure whether the problem is me or Windows.


For example, today I tried installing a winmail.dat reader from the 
Windows store. Using the store was doable. I did some muddling, and the 
experience was better with NVDA and Narrator than it was with Jaws, 
though honestly the experience felt like too much work,, but it's also 
possible that I would become proficient if I used the Store more often.


The app itself was another story. I couldn't figure it out, not the 
logic of the UI or the steps for opening or converting the file. Most 
likely it's not accessible, but then I think I heard someone on this 
list say they've used the nondesktop version of Audible when my results 
with it were very haphazard. I'm also not sure where these nondesktop 
apps are located so I can uninstall them.



If anyone has experience with the Windows Store or with nondesktop apps, 
do share any tips and tricks.


Thanks.


Ciao
