I'm attempting to change my default download location for Windows Store to my F: drive because it's a 2 TB drive, but I can't because there's an old WindowsApp folder on there from a previous Windows install that refuses to be deleted. When I attempt to change the download location, I first get this message: When I click Yes, I'm then greeted by this message: I've attempted to manually give myself permission of the folder in order to delete it, but I still get an error saying that I need permission from (computer name)/brian. This is particularly frustrating because I just bought Resident Evil 7 Gold Edition today and was able to install the base game and one of the DLCs on F:, but the other 2 DLCs gave me an error message saying that they must be installed on the system drive. There really needs to be some kind of tool that can be used to force delete WindowsApp folders. I'm out of ideas. Any suggestions? How to configure the installation of Microsoft Store apps to a separate drive. When it comes to Windows, we have a lot of independence, when it comes to where exactly we need to install our favourite applications and programs. In the case of normal desktop apps, we can install the programs in any location on our hard drive or SSD, despite the fact the installer tries to install the same within the program files of the root partition, or the C drive. But if you are having low space on the root partition, or the C drive, you can always install the same in a different location as per your requirements. But the things are not the same when it comes to Microsoft Store apps. When it comes to downloading apps from the Microsoft Store, the user apparently has no choice other than leaving it to Windows to install it in the default folder in the root partition. But you can simply change some settings and configure Windows to download Microsoft Store apps to a specific drive and save space on the root partition or the C drive for most users. If you have a specific drive for games or programs, you can even change the location of the installed app from the Microsoft Store, after the download and the download and installation is complete. So without any further delay, let’s get started with, how you can change the drive or location to install Microsoft Store apps. Changing the installation location for new Microsoft Store apps. Open ‘Settings’ from the Start menu. Change Microsoft Store apps installation location. Select the drive to save the windows 10 apps content. Changing the location of already downloaded Microsoft Store apps. To change the installation location of the existing apps, simply go to storage the same way as I discussed above, and click on ‘ Apps & features ’. Apps and features. Move Microsoft store apps from one drive to another. Move windows 10 installed apps from C Drive to D. So, that was all about how you can set a default drive to install Microsoft Store apps or move the existing Microsoft Store apps to another location. Do you have any questions? Feel free to comment on the same below. How to Change the Default Install Location for Store Apps in Windows 10. Windows 10 Store apps have a default install location, which might not be so convenient for some users. Fortunately though, this default install location can be changed to another partition or drive in your computer, including SD cards, USB flash disks and external hard drives- then you can get rid of apps that exist in your SSD drive along with Windows 10. Notes: 1. You can only pick partitions for installing your apps; you cannot choose subdirectories in them. 2. Apps which are already installed in the system will not be moved to the new install location- only new apps will be installed there. If you really want old apps in the new location, you’ll have to uninstall them first, and then reinstall them (after you have changed the install location of course). By doing this however, you can lose the app's data. 3. You cannot set the install location to be a mapped network drive. 4. There is no need to format a drive in order to use it for installing Store apps. 5. Disconnecting the drive you selected for installing apps will make the ones that have already been installed there to stop working, until you reconnect the drive again. 6. If you try to install a new app while the selected drive is disconnected, then the app will be installed to the default install directory, which is This PC in your C drive ( %LocalAppData%\Packages , or C:\Users\ USERNAME \AppData\Local\Packages , where USERNAME is the name of your account). As you can guess, they will not be moved to the other directory when it is available again- they will stay where they were installed. 7. New Store apps will be installed inside a new folder in the drive you selected, named WindowsApps . This folder will be encrypted with Encrypting File System ( EFS ), so that only your account will be able to access it. Changing the Default Install Location for Store Apps in Windows 10. In order to select another location for installing new apps, all you have to do is navigate to the corresponding setting in Windows 10- no need to mess with the registry or policies. Step 1: Go to Settings. Open the Start menu and select Settings . Step 2: Select the “System” Option. In the Settings window, click on the System option. Step 3: Highlight the “Storage” Item. From the System settings window, click on the Storage item from the sidebar. Step 4: Change Apps Install Location. Now, in the Storage configurations screen and under the Save locations heading, you can see an option that reads “ New apps will save to: ”, along with a dropdown box. All you need to do is click on that dropdown box and select the desired install location from the list of drives that appear. That’s all, now close the window and try installing a new app to verify that it goes inside the WindowsApps folder inside the selected drive. If you have a suggestion or problem, don't hesitate to let us know in the comments section below! Where are Windows store apps installed and where do they save data. Microsoft introduced the Windows Store apps called ‘Metro Apps’ with Windows 8. Microsoft later decided to call them ‘Modern Apps’. And as of today, in Windows 10, the store apps are simply called as “Windows Apps”. Microsoft uses a hidden folder named WindowsApps to install these Metro/Modern apps. The folder is located within the Program Files folder in the system drive (C:\). Data for all of the Modern Apps are stored in the AppData folder under the user’s profile. Installation and temporary data folders for Windows Apps. As with older programs, Windows uses different folders to store an app’s installation files and the data (such as sessions, in-app downloads; etc). Here are the details: Installation folder – Apps are installed to the WindowsApps folder. You can find it at this location – C:\Program Files . Temporary data folder (Isolated storage) – Modern apps save their data at the following location – C:\Users\ <username>\AppData\Local\Packages . Do note that both folders are hidden. They will not show under the list of folders unless you enable the display of hidden files in Windows 10. If you have enabled the hidden items, then the folders will appear in a lighter color, indicating that it is a hidden item. You have found the WindowsApps folder. But you cannot access it yet. When you try to open, Windows will notify that you do not have permission to access the folder. You will click on Continue hoping that you would gain authority, but Windows will block your way by throwing the Permission Denied notice. Why is it inaccessible? It is because you do not have permission to read or write to the folder. When you click continue, Windows tries to gain permission using an elevated (administrator) request, but since you’re not an owner of the folder, it gets denied again. How to Access WindowsApps folder. You need to jump into the folder’s security settings and make yourself the owner in order to access it normally. Just follow the few steps below to get yourself in. Right-click on the WindowsApps folder and switch to the security tab. Click on Continue and then click on Change in front of the owner.

  • APK Files) on Your Android Phone
    How to Install Applications (APK Files) on Your Android Phone Overview An Android application is stored in an APK file (i.e., a file named by {Application Name}.apk). You must install the APK on your Android phone in order to run it. There are three different ways to install APK files on your phone: • The easiest way is simply to download the application from the Android Market or from a web site directly to the SD card mounted in your phone, then click on the APK file to install it. • The second way is to download the APK file to your computer, mount your phone’s SD card in the computer (or connect the phone with the SD inserted in it to the computer via USB cable) and copy the APK file to the SD card, then insert the SD card in the phone and install the APK file from the SD card using an Application Installer or File Manager that you download from the Android Market. This method is useful for installing non-market applications (i.e., applications not available on the Android Market). • The third way is to install the Android Software Development Kit (SDK ) on your computer, then connect the phone via USB cable to the computer and use the Android Debug Bridge (contained in the SDK) to install the APK on the phone. This method is more suitable for developers and technical users who need to install non-market applications. Note: Because of the diversity in Android devices, some methods may not be supported on your phone.

  • How to Convert Desktop Apps to Universal Windows Platform Apps with Desktop Bridge
    How to convert desktop apps to Universal Windows Platform apps with Desktop Bridge If you're looking to bring your traditional app to the Universal Windows Platform, this guide walks you through the steps to use the DesktopAppConverter to convert your app. On Windows 10, Microsoft is not only adding new features and making the operating system more secure, but it's also investing on making the Windows Store the single place for users to acquire apps. The caveat with the Windows Store is that it doesn't include support for distribution of traditional desktop applications -- you're only able to download Universal Windows Platform (UWP) apps. However, Microsoft is making some changes, and now thanks to Desktop Bridge, we're slowly starting to see desktop apps and tools available in the Store. What's Desktop Bridge? How does Desktop Bridge works? Things you need before converting an app How to prepare your computer to convert apps How to convert desktop apps into Windows Store apps How to install a converted app on Windows 10 What's Desktop Bridge? It's all part of an initiative called Project Centennial, which now you know as Desktop Bridge. The new approach is essentially a "bridge" that let developers take traditional desktop applications and convert them into Universal Windows Platform (modern) apps. The idea behind Desktop Bridge is that great apps take time and effort, and if they're already working, Microsoft doesn't want you to abandon that code. With Desktop Bridge, you can take your existing desktop application (Win32, WPF, and Windows Forms), make a little modification (if necessary), and bring that great code to the new platform, which can also take advantage of many new features.
