No way to get Firefox from MS Store?

Could you please offer Firefox in Microsoft Store?

Or at least, offer not only your Nullsoft-based EXE installer, but also .AppX files, so that companies can use Firefox package directly in Microsoft Intune MDM product, instead of losing time with never-ending repackaging? (Intune does not support EXE files, only MSI and AppX).

The reason why employees in my company go away from FF, is because with so many frequent FF releases, it is almost impossible to keep FF package up-to-date when the IT teams have to repackage manually every month for example.

Offering it in MS Store, would make your browser more attractive, because less burden for IT (they will no longer be involved, and employees will be happy to download the most recent version, and not an outdated one).

(Yes, yes, I know about UWP, but that is the way it is...)

Hi

Thank you for your question.

As far as I am aware, Firefox is not available from that source, but I do know that these things are reviewed and looked into and it may feature in the future.
