The Windows Store policies on Electron-based apps seem at the very least unclear... if it is acceptable, it's a large hassle that doesn't seem worth it at the moment.

@TheBlueFire94, this may be a duplicate of https://github.com/element-hq/element-web/issues/23878#issue-1469723191.

@jryans, almost all of those policies have been reversed: .exe
, .MSI
, .APPX
, and .MSIX
all coexist now, although know that MSIX certainly remains ideal.
This would need to go via legal to accomodate https://www.bis.doc.gov/index.php/policy-guidance/encryption
Element is now a PWA, is it not? Why not just package the PWA for it? Or is the PWA still limited?
The PWA doesn't support Seshat or keytar, the electron app has those. Seshat enables search of encrypted rooms.

@TheBlueFire94, this is close to completion per https://winstall.app/apps/Element.Element and https://github.com/microsoft/winget-pkgs/issues/38444#issue-1085366894.
@RokeJulianLockhart could you rename the issue please to Microsoft Store?

@lectrician1, I can't rename https://github.com/element-hq/element-desktop/issues/651#issue-1673178591, because it's owned by @TheBlueFire94, and I've not repository management permissions. It should be renamed, though.
