I've registered a Microsoft account with a Gmail address when I first booted my Windows 8 installation. In Windows Store I only get a few apps under each category, like 5 apps under "Photography". I then added a user using my old (unused) Hotmail account. Suddenly the Windows Store was filled with thousands of apps.
Is it supposed to work like this? Can't I get all the apps in Windows Store if I register with a non-Microsoft email account?
Could it be coincidence / timing? It just took a while for the apps to populate. Furthermore I cannot see how one user would affect another user's app store. As for me, my non-Microsoft, non-Google account has zillions of apps in its store. – Guy Thomas – 2013-01-08T07:56:58.710
@GuyThomas: Perhaps it was due to some account settings (maybe the location/address he mentioned while registering the email address) that differed? (As we know, number of apps shown depends on the region.)
