To enable students to install software from within the Microsoft Store without having to get parents to install software that requires local admin privileges.

Sorry i do not understand your request.
LMMS is not on windows-store.
Only correct way is to get lmms from this site:
https://lmms.io/download#windows
Can you explain what you are requesting?


Besides that, since you are new in Forum

Hi

Yes, that's my point, LMMS is not in the Microsoft Store. We try to use the software within an education environment but must rely on parents installing the desktop application at home on their childs device, as the children's accounts do not have admin privilege's to run the installer. Therefore if there was a LMMS app offering within the Microsoft Store this would enable education establishments to use the LMMS product, as Microsoft Store apps do not require admin rights to install the apps.

And there never will be. Microsoft demands an obscene fee for apps in their 'store'.
LMMS wont ever sign with microsoft, nor will LMMS ever be certified by Microsoft.
No open-source/ free-ware are.

They may be able to run the portableapps version with needing any additional install privileges.

A very strange idea. Microsoft Store is one of the most terrible inventions of this company. I try to avoid this application as much as possible, since it is very inconvenient, and some strange errors constantly appear that arise on their own and are resolved in the same way ... It is much easier to download the necessary applications from the developer's website. So far, the only store with a variety of applications I've seen is only for smartphones. It is very convenient when you find a cool application on a site like [link removed] and just follow the link from your smartphone or install the application on your smartphone directly through the browser on your PC (if it is android). Anyway, hopefully lmms will never use the microsoft store.

Hi,
Are you trying to say that children can use LMMs App without the permission of their parents? If so, it is very interesting but I don't know it is right to do so or not.
