Late yesterday (19), the company made the Google Chrome browser available within the Windows Store, Microsoft's official apps store for the system operational. The act was considered bold because, instead of putting the application for you to download, the download button was a shortcut of the link to the installer.
In other words, you would no longer need to open the Edge – it was opened automatically via the Windows Store and the installation started right away.
For what reason?
Microsoft explained to The Verge website what happened. 'We removed the Google Chrome Installer App from the Microsoft Store because it violates the policies of our store,' a company spokesman explained.
It turns out that this policy really does exist and the biggest culprit is Windows 10 S, the more streamlined and student-directed version of the operating system. Because of this, any browser that is available in Windows Store must use HTML and JavaScript engines provided by the company itself. Google Chrome uses a Blink-based rendering – and would have to create a whole new version of the browser to suit.
So, the game follows: anyone who does not like Edge needs to open it at least once
Abrir chrome con google. Possibly because of this (and also to put an official version anyway, since several fakes and malwares already tried to pass Chrome in place), she tried to maladroit. However, this part is purely speculative: Google did not comment on the removal of the installer.

Last week, Microsoft finally announced its much-anticipated competitor to Google's Chrome OS. It's called Windows 10 S, and it's essentially a stripped-down, streamlined version of the company's desktop OS. It seems like a solid idea, but if there's one thing about the new Windows 'lite' that is giving would-be buyers pause, it's the fact that only apps from the Windows Store can be installed on any device using the new operating system, and that means no third party browsers, like Google Chrome. So why doesn't Google just make a Windows Store version of Chrome and make everyone happy? Unfortunately it's not nearly that easy.
Chrome Windows Store App
As ZDNet points out, Microsoft's restrictions and requirements for apps submitted to the Windows Store would essentially force Google to totally rewrite a new browser from the ground up. The issue stems from Microsoft's requirement that all Windows-approved apps utilize the company's own rendering engines. Microsoft describes the policy, and its impact on third party browsers, thusly:
Chrome Windows Store
Windows Store apps that browse the web must use HTML and JavaScript engines provided by the Windows Platform. All Windows Store content is certified by Microsoft to help ensure a quality experience and keep your devices safer. With this policy, instated early this year, the browser a customer chooses in the Store will ensure the protections and safeguards of our Windows platform. If people would like to access apps from other stores and services, they can switch to Windows 10 Pro at any time.
In short, even if Google — or Opera or Mozilla — repackaged their browsers in a way that would allow them to be installed via the Windows Store, the actual architecture of the apps would lead Microsoft to reject them outright.
Chrome Window Store
In the big picture, it makes sense for Microsoft to lock down what apps are used on its education-focused Windows spin-off and, like Chrome OS, preventing third party browsers in the name of convenience and security is probably a smart play. All that being said, it certainly doesn't make Microsoft Edge any more appealing.
