Windows Phone App in Windows 10 Desktop

How to install windows phone app in Windows 10 Desktop (store)?
And is it possible at all?
Hi Leg. I'm Greg, an installation specialist and 9 year Windows MVP, here to help you.

It's included in Version 1809. So if you haven't Upgraded yet install the Media Creation Tool from this link choosing Download Tool Now, install the tool, open it and choose Upgrade this PC Now. http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-10/m.... This will save your files and apps while bringing you up to the latest version by the most stable method. It will also bring all of your Updates current and solve most problems since it reinstalls Windows.

Here's how to set up and use the phone app:

It's preinstalled in Version 1809 as shown in the tutorial I gave you quite clearly.

It appears in the Store here: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/p/your-phone/9n... in Version 1803, so you can try installing it from there if you dont' want to change to the latest version which has it preinstalled.

I have "Your Phone", but you do not understand me.
I want to install App on the desktop, without using the phone. (Why do I need this then?)

Roughly speaking,I want to click on the “Install” button and install the application, such as Steam, Google authenticator, etc
Do you understand me?
(Sorry for the stupid question)

Go ahead and install it from the Store then, to see if it's any different. I gave you the link to the App in the Store.

It may be slightly different like the OneDrive store app is from the OneDrive app which comes with Windows 10.

Let us know what you discover.
