I am a student and so i am provided with internet connectivity for my laptop only in my institution. I am so addicted to apps and i will keep installing apps by downloading it via laptop and then transferring it to phone.But,after the publication of the new windows store, the feature of downloading mobile apps through PC is not found. I don't know why Microsoft has lifted this option from the store since it helps users like me a lot...

I'm very curious here as well. Just posted a similar question but for me the option to block app downloads is also gone from the family store which was the one shred of parental control I had.

Re: Download and Install Manually Button???

Doesn't seem to work even if you're on TP10. If referring to the free apps, couldn't get any except Metro Commander Pro.

Somebody suggested this site to me and it is good. Try this: Appx4fun
Search it on Bing or Google and you will get it (Y)
Hope this helps :)

Re: New web store

Only after Microsoft updates the new web store with this features. Or better said put this feature back.
