Vivaldi is now available in the Microsoft StoreThe Microsoft App Store for Windows and a centralized repository that, for various reasons, must continue to establish itself as the default alternative for installing applications on Windows.
As you know, Vivaldi is one of the most popular web browsers of the new wave that emerged from the Chromium code, and given the distance with which Chrome dominates the landscape, it is always one of the most interesting alternatives due to the approach it practices. where customization and functionality are at the heart of the menu.
Its latest version, Vivaldi 6.0, came out exactly a month ago with various new features, as mentioned in the news, but if you haven’t tried it yet, don’t go to its website and download it: install it directly from the Microsoft Store if you’re using Windows 10 or Windows 11.
Because? Because a centralized distribution model may have its problems, but it also has its advantages, including two of the first order: availability and security. Accessibility, because it is much easier to search one site than the entire Internet, and much more easier app updates which you installed on the system in one go.

Safety, because even though something can always leak, all software published in the Microsoft Store is monitored by Microsoft and it is more difficult for them to turn you on. In any case, impurity is to blame for this in the sense of allowing applications so nominally similar that they can be misleading, but in various aspects they are on top and you can tell.
The Microsoft Store is based on the app store model popularized by Apple with its App Store, which in turn is based on the centralized repository model popularized by Linux for its distributions. And although there must always be an option to go out of the ordinary to avoid being locked up, this is the most comfortable and safest model there is.
So don’t just stick with Vivaldi: check out the Microsoft Store, see how many apps you’ve installed elsewhere are there, and make the switch if you haven’t already. It works out.
By the way, along with Vivaldi, you can find other web browsers in the Microsoft Store: Firefox, Brave, Opera… even Microsoft Edge is there, although it is not necessary, because Windows would put it in your soul if it could.
