Does anyone have a one-click shortcut for updating apps at the Microsoft Store? Today it takes me five clicks, which is such an inconvenience. :rolleyes: With all the extra time I'd get with a one-click methods, I could be inventing a way to achieve cold fusion... or something like that.

I have never once manually updated my store apps. It does its own thing. In fact, I never open the store at all.

Create a shortcut that you can pin on the taskbar, you will only have to press Update.

Code: 
C:\Windows\explorer.exe "ms-windows-store://downloadsandupdates"
