The Microsoft Store on Windows 11 has introduced a new feature resembling Ninite, allowing users to install multiple applications concurrently using a single installer. This feature is currently available on the Store's web version.
Functionality and Limits
Users can select up to 16 apps from the Microsoft Store's curated list of 64 applications. These selections create a download package executed to install apps in the background, preventing manual downloading of each.
- The multi-app installer allows up to 16 apps per package.
- Only available on the Microsoft Store web version.
- A curated list of 64 apps is supported.
Platform Scope
Currently, the multi-app install feature functions only on the Microsoft Store's web version and does not extend to the Store app on Windows 11. Microsoft has been contacted about potentially broadening the selection of available applications.
This development offers a streamlined solution for users needing simultaneous installations, reducing the need for multiple downloads and simplifying Windows 11 application management.
