The Microsoft Store was more than a collection of applications. Requiring apps to be packaged as MSIX and APPX made even traditional/non-UWP applications safer, as well as easier to deploy and maintain. I feel like allowing MSI and EXE installers into the Store was a move away from years of effort to improve security/privacy/reliability/manageability. Would you please speak to this concern?
+1 @ Nathan. I would really like to see some formal documentation on how we are going to manage application deployment with the impending retirement of the MS Store for Business. Also, any updates on leveraging WinGet with Intune natively? 🤞

The plan that we spelled out at https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/windows-it-pro-blog/evolving-the-microsoft-store-for-business-and-education/ba-p/2569423 is still the most up-to-date plan. The Windows Package Manager integration into Intune is still being developed, so you're right there is not alot of documentation. But we'll have more to offer on Package Manager and on Winget when the solution is closer to preview and the eventual general availability.
