  1. "allow apps from anywhere" drop-down menu missing


    How do I download apps that are not in the app store?

    So I saw that my version of zoom was a bit outdated and I wanted to download a newer one, so when I went to the download page and clicked the download button, and when It finished I opened it and it said: "The app you're trying to install isn't a Microsoft-verified app. Installing apps from the store helps protect your Pc and kept it running smoothly." and then there is a button that says "get apps from the store" and another that say's "Change my app recommendation settings".

    I did some research and there is supposed to be a button to allow this but there isn't anything. Is there any way to fix this, or is this like a problem with my version of windows?



    I am in windows 10 home edition

    "allow apps from anywhere" drop-down menu missing

    Pull-down or Drop-down Menu?

    I decided to uninstall Firefox after the entries in the Favorites doubled.
    (Example: the Yahoo Mail sign-in page appears twice in the list. Deleting
    one also deletes the other.)

    I have been looking for browsers with pull-down or drop-down menus but
    could only find Chrome-styled browsers (without pull-down or drop-down menus).

    Would anyone suggest an old style browser?

    TIA.
