yeah, back when I was maining windows, I went through a lot of trouble to install non-store versions.

Of course, some places lock down their employees too much for them to do that

We can't even use Windows store. We have a bespoke portal that has a very small list of approved programs to install.

Yup, I know just where that happens. It's probably a joy to work in your IT. They probably have a keyboard macro for "no"
