The central theses

  • The Microsoft Store Insider update improves app management by making it easier to access purchased apps
  • The new search bar lets you quickly find specific apps, and improved filters keep you better organized.
  • Quality of life options like the download section at the top make browsing easier for users.



The Microsoft Store is a great way to find new apps for your PC, but it can be a little tricky to find the apps you've already purchased but haven't installed yet. If you love buying apps from the Microsoft Store but don't want to keep track of them all, the new Insider update is a welcome addition. Now it's easier than ever to keep track of your purchased apps, and you have the option to view only your installed apps.

The Windows Store Insider build makes going through your purchases much easier1000006583

As announced on the Windows blogs, Microsoft has added a new update to the Insider branch with a number of new features. One of them is excellent news for people who have purchased a lot of apps from the Store:


First, we improved the default filters to show all the products you own, not just those installed (you can still toggle this filter if you need to). Next, we added a search bar that lets you find the name or publisher of the products you're looking for. Combined with the first change, this new experience is powerful: You can easily find every app and game you've ever purchased with your Microsoft account.

The update also adds some handy quality of life options, such as adding downloads to a dedicated section at the top and limited-time game events.


If you're an Insider, you should have access to the update now. If you can't see it, it may take a while before it's made available to you. And if you haven't visited the Microsoft Store in a while, you might want to see all the new features it offers, like the new search tool that recommends apps to you.
