https://blogs.windows.com/windowsdeveloper/2022/05/24/microsoft-store-grows-with-the-developer-community/
In this article there is an interesting feature, called Restore Apps.

To make it easier for customers to transition to their new PCs quickly and seamlessly, we will soon test a new feature in the Windows Insider channel that helps customers automatically restore their apps, previously installed from the Microsoft Store, to their new Windows device.

So, when users reinstall Windows or get a new system, all their Windows Store apps can be installed with one click.
This makes it very comfortable for users.
I searched for some of my apps in the Window store and indeed, I found many of them:

Keeper
Spotify
TreeSize Free
Discord
Microsoft Teams
Skype
Norton 360
CCleaner
Amazon Music
Microsoft Edge
Slack
Epic Games Store
Screenpresso
Microsoft Power Automate
Microsoft PowerToys
paint.net
Visual Studio Code
Visual Studio Community 2019
Visual Studio Community 2022

These popular apps are also available in the Window store:

Mozilla Firefox
TeamSpeak
TeamViewer
WhatsApp Desktop
iTunes
iCloud
Netflix
TikTok
Instagram
Facebook
Lecovo Vantage

It seems like more and more apps are also available in the Windows Store.
Users have the following advantages:

it is very easy to download and install these apps
the apps are automatically updated
the apps are linked with my Microsoft account, so I can easily install them on a second system too
when I reinstall my system, I can install all apps with one click

So more and more users will install ttheir apps via the Microsoft Store.

I added most computers of my family (wife, daughter, brother, girlfriend of brother, Virtual Machine).
Soon I will add my father.
My "job" is to support them (they have no high computer skills, especially my father, my brother and this girlfriend).
So my brother and his girlfriend often call me and ask if their computer is OK (they are used that I call them and tell them to update some applications).
But they are not often online:
[image: 1593542294141-968ddf5a-069b-4d1b-8508-e13f850d2a23-image.png]
So here I can not warn them that there are vulnerabilities on their systems (because I have to wait until they turn their computers on.
It would be very helpful if the list of apps is updated even without a scan.
So I see available updates and existing vulnerabilities and can actively warn them.

I know, that VulnDetect informs me about available updates, but it still requires, that I install them manually (for most apps).
So I have to perform these steps manually:

Check for Microsoft Windows Updates
Check for Microsoft 365 Updates
Check for Microsoft Edge Updates
Check for Updates in the Microsoft Store (here I need some manual clicks)
Check for Norton 360 Updates

These updates are installed via the app directly, so there is no installer file available that I can download and istall.
So, after VulnDetect tells me, that updates are available, I have to perform multiple manual steps and update the app, like:

Go to the Windows Settings, click on "Windows Update" and then "Check for updates"
Start Microsoft Excel, click on "Account" and then on the button "Office Updates"
Start Microsoft Edge, go to the Settings, go to "Information about Edge" and wait for the result

For all other apps I have to download the installer of the new version manually and update the app.
It would be useful if the VulnDetect Agent

Shows me a list of available updates (only apps, which have updates, not all apps)
Shows also the available version number (recommended version)
Shows a button "Update" behind each available update

This button "Update" does the following:

Opens the Windows Updates with one click (or installs them with one click)
Executes the Microsoft Office Updater (I can send the command)
Starts Microsoft Edge and tells him to install updates
Opens the Microsoft Store with one click (or installs Updates with one click)
Downloads and executes the installer of all apps, that have an installer available

This way updating my system can be done with less mouse clicks.
A huge improve of the usability!

Here you see a screen shot, how it looks there:

The first icon downloads the recommended version.
The second icon copies the download link of the recommended version to the clipboard.

Therefore, I mark this topic as Implemented.
