I’m not able to find this answer in old posts. Can we install games from the Microsoft store? I just claimed a free copy of Fallout 76 on PC from Prime Gaming and the MS store is telling me I need the XBOX app which sounds really weird to me.

I don’t think you can, some games in the MS Store have the Microsoft DRM, some games are UWP and not .exe and in the case of Fallout 76 I think they will use the Xbox service to run the multiplayer/coop. You could try to install via VM or install the MS Store app via Bottles(I don’t know if it works).
