    Is that a paid app?

    Because as dumb as the Windows Store is, you can still download and install anything provided it’s a free app without a Microsoft account still. I just tried it and it still works, although I didn’t try an exhaustive list of apps. If it gives you a pop up nagging about a Microsoft account, just cancel out of the log in pop up and the app will still download and install.

      It is. You are allowed to download it as it has a trial. But when it’s time to pay the only way is through a logged in account on the Microsoft store.
