    This is pretty neat. Probably a safer and secure way to install applications, just like I initially did with Linux Mint earlier this year.

      Only difference though is that the installers for software not on the MS Store are pulled from their respective sites. So there may still be a small risk if the site hosting the installer has been compromised.

        Anyway, with this method, we can guarantee that we are installing apps from official source.
