The new Microsoft Store policy for Windows 11, which allows unpackaged classic Win32 apps to be published to the store, has clearly appealed to many developers. With that change the new Microsoft Store is gradually becoming a hub for all Windows desktop applications.

While current Windows 11 preview builds work well, Microsoft warns that things are about to get a little rough. In an email to Windows insiders, the Software giant warned testers about potential instabilities in upcoming builds. The company recommends switching from the Dev channel to the Beta channel while the program allows that.

You can add the Show Desktop shortcut to the taskbar in Windows 11. It will be similar to the button that could be found in the taskbar of Windows XP and Windows Vista.
