    Is Microsoft seriously just ignoring this? Surely it is anti-competitive and illegal to only offer their own Cortana application (which I have absolutely no interest in, just like Bing!)?
    NB following the link provided by John DeV opens a window with a Get in Store App button. If followed, it opens the store with application details but no install button.

    If you use a web browser to navigate to https://alexa.amazon.co.uk/ (.com) you can no longer log in, but it too tries to direct you to download the app .. another dead link that tries to open the store (market://details?id=com.amazon.dee.app)

    I have same issue. This link https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/p/alexa/9n12z3c...  does not enable you to get/download the App. I have a Dell PC Windows 10 no microphone, and an Echo Dot speaker as a gift which I can't install as NO ALEXA APP in Microsoft Store. I don't want it on my android phone. Why is this App not in the Microsoft Store?? How can i install my Alexa on my PC without the blasted App??

    I found issues just today with the Alexa app on my Windows 11 PC. Every time I minimised the window while working, a minute or so later it popped up again. It was driving me crazy, so I just closed it completely, but the same thing happened. It kept popping up. In the end, finding it very tiresome, I uninstalled it.

    I then tried to reinstall it but it was nowhere listed directly in the Microsoft store any longer. Can anyone tell me what's going on? I intend to send this message to Amazon as well.

    I too have the same issue. When I search the Microsoft App Store for "Alexa", I get Cortana, Amazon Music, Prime Video, and others, but no Alexa. I have tried it on four different computers.

    When I click on John DeV's link I get a page that appears to be more of a stub then an actual app download page. From there I click on "Get in Store app' and it brings up the same window as sean green1 showed in his screen shot; when I click on "More Details" it takes me to what looks like a valid app page, but still no install option.

    It could be explained if Amazon had removed it from the Microsoft Store, but I had a long support chat with Amazon earlier today and the support person assured me that the app is still there and said that it's an issue for Microsoft support.
