About time! It's always been a pain in the rear to have to browse through a sea of fake apps artificially pushed to the top of the lists to try to find something useful in the Windows app store.

Rarely use the Windows Store, but everyone has to if you want to upgrade from Win 8 to 8.1 It's unorganized in there, Free games aren't free.

Jalek, really? 10,000 unique ones? You ARE hopeful this Friday!!

(And, yes, I'd have accused you of cynicism if you'd used MY figures - "499,900". ha ha)

This is purely a response for all the bad press they got this week about all the bogus apps they have populated their store with.
