9Zen Store is a free Windows 10 app store alternative with features like copy store link, download later option, display free/discounted apps for the day, etc. Copying the store link was a big problem I faced. When you open a app in Windows 10 store, there is no way you can copy the link of the app to share. But with this app this can be done easily.
The Windows 10 app store alternative app can be downloaded from the Windows 10 store or from the link given at the end of this article. When you open the app for the first time, you will come across a interface like the one shown in the screenshot below.
As you can see in the screenshot above, there is a country option at the bottom which let’s you browse apps from over 60 countries. The device option shows you device specific apps, like if you choose mobile then you will be shown apps that work on mobile phones only.
The free app deals link on the right side panel will show you apps which are available free for a day or are available on discount for that day. This section is shown in the screenshot above. The download later option lets you add apps to a list which you can check later and download.
How to copy store link of an app:
Select the app that you want the link of. Click on the app tile and it will open up in full screen view. Now look at the bottom right of the window, there is a three dot icon, clicking on which will bring up a menu. This can be seen in the screenshot below highlighted with a red outline.
The first option in this menu is copy link. Click this option and the store link for the app will be copied to the clipboard. Now you can paste it anywhere, share it with friends, open it up in a browser, etc.
