Would it be possible to give 7-Zip an updater for the Windows edition? Or release it on the Microsoft Store which would produce the same effect of not having to worry about manually checking for updates?

    it would be very nice. i think 7z can integrate into windows features better than this.

    I very much support the call for a Microsoft Store release. It's the most convenient way to install tools like this and keep them up-to-date. The Desktop App Converter should allow publishing to the Store with only minor (if any) adjustements.
    I'd also be fine with the Store version costing a small fee to make the extra work of publishing to the Store worthwhile, while still offering the free version for manual download. (paint.net does this, for example.)

    +1 for releasing it on the MS Store.
    Prefer updating and managing all the small apps (like utilities, social apps, medial players etc.) via one place. And being able to do clean installs/uninstalls is another thing I love about the store.

    I support the release of 7zip in the Microsoft store. It is much easier and more convenient to receive updates.
