Firefox is one of the first fundamental browsers inside the Microsoft Store


Mozilla is bringing Firefox to Microsoft’s Windows save today. Firefox is one of the first third-celebration options to be had inside the Microsoft Store, and it’s using its very own Gecko browser engine as opposed to Chromium options .


Microsoft’s new open save policies have in the end made it viable for 1/3-birthday celebration browsers like Firefox to appear in the Microsoft Store. While we haven’t visible Chrome appear but, Opera was short to make certain its personal browser is also indexed in the shop.


“Previously, if you had been on Windows and desired to use Firefox, you had to download it from the net and go through a clunky process from Microsoft,” explains Mozilla. “Now that Microsoft has modified its Store rules, deciding on Firefox as your computing device browser is even more seamless - and it comes with all the modern day Firefox functions.”


 Mozilla seems to have reverse engineered Microsoft’s capacity to set Edge because the default in Windows with a unmarried click on, rather than the multi-spark off process that exists in Windows 10 these days.


Interestingly, this one-click on technique doesn’t appear to paintings within the Microsoft Store model of Firefox. That approach Mozilla either averted filing its workaround version of Firefox or Microsoft rejected it from the Microsoft Store and the corporation was pressured to do away with the default browser workaround.


Microsoft has made the process of placing the default browser even more difficult in Windows eleven, and Mozilla has been trying to persuade Microsoft to enhance its default browser settings in Windows on account that its open letter to Microsoft in 2015.


Firefox is now to be had within the Microsoft Store for each Windows 10 and Windows 11.
