Microsoft has rolled out a new update to Microsoft Store, making its loading times almost three times quicker on Windows 11.
Windows 11 Now Launches Microsoft Store Faster Than Before
The recent update (version 22309) has improved Microsoft Store’s launch experience as it now loads in just two to three seconds on Windows 11, compared to the longer loading times on the older app version.
The news was shared by Daniel, an Engineer on the Microsoft Store on Windows team, via X (formerly known as Twitter), who posted that the 22309 version update of the Microsoft App Store reduced the app’s loading time from 7 seconds to two seconds. He supported his claim by sharing a video he said was taken on his home PC.
New Microsoft Store update just dropped, v22309. Available for all users. On my home PC, older versions launched in 7s. Now it launches in 2s🔥
Our work isn't done here yet, but I hope you like this improvement 🙂
And please keep the feedback coming. The team is listening 💪🏽 pic.twitter.com/Xg57zV9AhM
