    This doesn't work. None of it.

    Thanks.

    As evidenced by the threads it would be nice if they would support a pc version of Alexa. Ok I’m old and I prefer a big screen and a keyboard.

    Completely agree. I'm in the same boat, and I'd much rather type than "peck." Not only that just about every merchant and restaurant and bank, etc. insist that you download and use their app. After you download so many your phone gets full and the apps run very s---l---o---w, to the point you have to start deleting your photos and some apps just to keep it semi-functional (unless you want to upgrade your phone to the latest and greatest -- which I don't care to do since I only use it when I have to outside of calls and short texts. I think the (mostly) young developers forget that not everyone is married to their phone and they are likely alienating a substantial portion of the population by ignoring those of us who prefer using PCs. That's why I suggested bugging Amazon support. They say the squeaky wheel gets the grease, and since the app is already developed, they would have to do very little outside of hosting it and making a link available.

    Thank you, Ramesh.

    This is SHAMEFUL on Microsoft's part. Thought they were done with all this shady anti-competitive ****. But creating my own download link for the appxbundle allowed me to install it.

    Once I installed it (I used the 1 version older as test), then closing and re-opening the Microsoft Store, then the link worked, and when I viewed More Details... it appears to have triggered an update to the latest version directly from the store.

    It, however, STILL, even after all of that, does not show up in the Windows Store search results.

    Thank you - same issue for me, Microsoft blocking the Alexa app - very disappointing.
