So I bought Minecraft which gets you a "free" copy of Minecraft: Windows 10 edition ( basically MCPE on a desktop ).
I was hoping to replace [url=github.com/MCMrARM/mcpelauncher-linux]MCPE launcher[/url] by running it under wine.
Unfortunately it seems you can only download it though the windows store - even with UA-spoofing you only get a ms-windows-store://pdp/... link.
Question:
How can I download games off the windows store in Linux?
** Just to clarify; This is NOT about the Minecraft pc/java edition! **
