Apps can transform the way you do anything you’re passionate about, whether that’s creating, learning, playing games, or just getting more done. And the App Store is the best place to discover new apps that let you pursue your passions in ways you never thought possible.
Designed for discovery.
Tabs in the App Store make it easy to discover new apps you’re going to love. And to learn more about the kinds of apps you already love.
The Mac App Store comes as part of the update to Mac OS X v10.6.6. The minimum system requirements for the platform are: A Mac computer with an Intel processor. I deleted the App Store application with AppCleaner some months ago, after ongoing problems with a freezing Finder. Now I would like to reinstall, but I cannot find a way. The 10.6.6 combo updater of course will not do the job because it needs an older OS X incarnation and I'm running 10.6.8.

You can't find an app that a friend or family member told you about. Or you found it on your Windows 10 laptop but not on your Windows 10 Mobile device. Or you found it, but you can't install it. What's going on? Here are some possibilities:
App Store 10.6.8 Download
The app isn't available in your country or region. Not all apps are available worldwide. So the app your friend saw in France might not be available in Germany. If you bought an app in one country or region and then you moved to another one, apps you had might disappear.
Microsoft family settings might be hiding apps. Parents can use Microsoft family settings to make sure that their child can't view or install apps that are inappropriate for their age. Get more info.
The app is no longer available. Sometimes an app is removed from Microsoft Store, but it takes a little time for the app description page to get pulled down. In addition, some apps and games are not available in Microsoft Store, but can be downloaded from the publisher's site directly.
The app is not compatible with your device. Microsoft Store automatically hides or blocks the Buy button on apps that are incompatible with your device. You might see an app from Microsoft Store available on your PC, but not on another PC, or your Xbox.
Your PC was recently updated, but wasn't restarted. If updates for Windows were recently installed, you'll need to restart your PC before you can install apps from Microsoft Store.
