Microsoft Store in Windows Sandbox
By default, Microsoft Store is not included in Windows Sandbox. In case you want to test an app from Store, you must have enabled it first.
1️⃣ Right-click on the Windows Start icon then select Windows PowerShell Admin.
2️⃣ We’ve created a PowerShell script to do all manual steps automatically.
Note
Our PowerShell script is safe, but you should verify the security and contents of any script from the internet you are not familiar with.
Copy and paste the below command into the PowerShell window then hit Enter.
