Does Microsoft offer military discounts on Microsoft 365 and computers?
Does Microsoft have Black Friday sales?

My brother needs that HEVC Video Extensions app to see iPhone pictures (.HEIC files). I have an account I can use to buy the extension, but he’s young and foolish, and I don’t want him to have access to my card.
If I buy the app, download/install it, then sign my account out, will he be able to use the extension? I assume yes, but figured I’d ask before committing.

- Go to https://apps.microsoft.com/store/apps
- Search for your App
- Copy the ID from the URL, for example:
9WZDNCRFJ3TJ - run the following command
winget install 9WZDNCRFJ3TJ -s msstore
If you do not have winget here are some instructions how to install: https://github.com/microsoft/winget-cli
This is what I tried and worked out for me:
- Go to MS Store and copy the link of the app you want to install https://apps.microsoft.com/store/apps
- Copy the link of the app and paste in this website https://store.rg-adguard.net, search in
RPmode. - In the results, download only the files that end with the extensions
.appx,.appxbundle, or.msixbundle.
Note: Avoid files with extensions.eappx,.eappxbundle, or.emsixbundle, as these are encrypted files. - Right-click of the app you need and save as, your browser .might detect it as a harmful app, you can ignore and keep the file
- Make sure you also download all the dependencies and save them as well
- Once you download all the dependencies and the application, start by installing dependencies first, and then the main app
- To install, go to the downloads location, right click on each and click Install
- Optional: you can also install via powershell
Add-AppxPackage -Path "<PATH>".appx
