"Check the boxes next to up to 16 apps you want, click the Install Selected button, and your browser downloads a single executable that installs them all. This capability is only available in the web version of the store, and not the app that lives on your Windows 11 taskbar."
"I chose six apps - Canva, Speedtest by Ookla, Instagram, Wallpaper by SuperFizz, ChatGPT, and Netflix - and, when I clicked the EXE file, it immediately opened the downloads page of the Microsoft Store app on my PC and started downloading and installing them simultaneously. Canva installed so quickly that I didn't get it in the screenshot. The selection of apps available for multi-app install isn't particularly comprehensive, but there are some big names on the list."
The Microsoft Store web interface offers a multi-app installer that lets users select up to 16 apps from a list of 48 across six categories: Productivity, Creativity, Social, Entertainment, Tools & Utilities, and Personalization. After selecting apps and clicking Install Selected, the browser downloads a single executable which launches the Microsoft Store app and begins downloading and installing the chosen apps simultaneously. The app list features major titles such as Teams, Canva, ChatGPT, Photoshop, Netflix, Spotify, and various social apps, though the selection is not comprehensive. The feature is not present in the Windows 11 taskbar Store app and resembles third-party tools like Ninite.
