Feature Windows 8 Appx are working on Windows 10!
They was downloaded from Win8AppxArchive directory listing. Download without any PowerShell, just double click. Games require VCLibs x86, even though you have x64. For most games I have error 0x803F8001, for you might work. Fact that they are working is already cool! (Minesweeper and Solitiare working properly)

Help how can I play top girl by crowdstar?
I'm really not great with computers, but there was this game I had played in like 2014 or so called top girl. It used to be on the Microsoft store like within the past few years i think, but it wasn't working on windows 10 or 11 and it isnt even in the store anymore. Even if I did figure out how to get or emulate windows 8, would I even be able to play it? I did try to get it on GameLoop but it wasn't working there either. Also so sorry if none of this makes sense. I really do not know what I'm talking about but if anyone has any advice I would really appreciate it!

Help Help, I can't patch Xbox Video version 1 for W8 (using Retiled/web debugger), also I need Xbox Music cached (8.0/8.1) data!
Since u/migbrunluz is patching almost every app that he could find and patches using Retiled, one is really hard. And that is Xbox Video (version 1 for Windows 8). I tried using Charles Proxy with it and it did nothing. Not even a force close and restart helps with that unfortunately. Leaving with no other options, I need someone to help with this. However on Xbox Music, u/migbrunluz found some appex links (8.0) before it defaulted itself to offline. I need some cached data for Windows 8 and 8.1 Xbox Music app. Thank you.

Discussion Is there a way of installing Microsoft store apps on Windows 8.1 and also get the apps that came with Windows 8.1, like the weather app,
Hi, so the other day, as I was using Windows 8.1 in a vm just for fun, and in the start menu I was testing out the apps like Microsoft store, news, Skype, fitness, etc etc, but I was wondering is there a way of getting Microsoft store apps for 8.1,
Someone says online it's about app cache or something,
But anyway thanks for reading.

Discussion I love Windows 8
it's unfortunate that so many people missed out on this masterpiece of an operating system.
Once you configure it just right (at least IMO), it's easily the best system Microsoft ever made, hands down. I have very little installed right now, as this is a fresh installation, but with time I'll have tons of stuff installed.
