Windows 10: How to restore a previously purchased app add-on using Microsoft App store purchase history.

Howdy. I downloaded an App 4-Plan so I could design our new house. Got the app working nicely and decided to purchase the premium upgrade to be able to have more design tools. That was in 2020. The app was working normally until December, 2/24, when I was forced to reinstall windows 10 due to a file corruption. I had to reload several programs but it was otherwise painless...until...When I got back to house design stuff in March 2025 I could not get the app to boot. I was forced to reload the app from the Microsoft Store. It booted and I was able to open the files I created. However,

Restore previously purchased Apps

I had to send my phone away for repairs, in which when it was returned to me it had been reset, so all my data was cleared.

I want to restore all my previously purchased Apps back onto my phone.

Do I have to search for them in the Marketplace and download them one at a time?

Or is there an easier way to be able to download all previously purchased Apps with one click?

Because looking at my history, I've downloaded 93 Apps and it would be quite painful to have to download each App one at a time.

Thank you for your assistance.

 

Apple Claims Steam Link App Violates App Store Guidelines

Here's what Valve is contending with:
App Review Guidelines - Apple Developer

The ones that stand out that may have caught Steam Link:

So yeah, there's a lot of reasons why Steam Link would get rejected.

App submissions and approvals is a thing between developer and Apple. Valve intentionally let this information leak probably because Apple's restrictive guidlines will never allow Steam Link to be on the store. Valve is hoping the Steam user base makes a lot of noise so Apple grants Valve and exemption. I doubt it will work. Apple loves control and Steam Link is a portal into the Linux/Windows ecosystem. Even if Steam Link were exclusive to Mac OS, Apple would likely demand Valve use Mac OS's remote desktop features rather than Steam Link.

I'd be shocked if Apple allows it.

 

Cannot activate Win10 Pro after Microsoft Store app purchase

Hello guys, My laptop came pre-installed with Win10 Home 64bit and I recently purchased a Win 10/11 Pro licence from the Microsoft Store app. Unfortunately, having some issues activating the digital licence for Win10 Pro. Here is the situation:

• Logged into Microsoft account used for the purchase (also received the email receipt of the purchase)
• Already connected to stable internet

Clicking Close returned another error 0xC004F034:

Clicking Troubleshoot re-activated my Win10 Home so still not on Pro. Thanks for any help. [FIXED] Win 10 Pro suddenly became Win 10 Ent from MS Store app: Jump to solution - Cannot activate Win10 Pro after Microsoft Store app purchase Sources:
