The site HTNovo noticed this<\/a> and reported about this possibility here. This is possible because the open source community has ported the email client to the Microsoft Store. They write from 'Store Port' – I guess using the Desktop Bridge. <\/p>\n The Thunderbird Store app provides mail, calendar, RSS and contact management. Since the Thunderbird is an open source program, the app download is available for free. The app package is a little over 126 MByte in size.<\/p>\n On GitHub<\/a> the developers write that an installation without administrator rights is possible. I myself have been using the Thunderbird for 10 years in a portable version. I don't need to install anything – and can even move the Thunderbird to an external hard drive or network drive to access emails or appointments from other machines. At the moment I don't really see the point in getting the stuff from the store and installing it, except for one situation. The exception is that the app runs under Windows 10 S – but who uses this version? But maybe someone has further reasons for this approach.
