Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/ollama/ollama/issues/12595

I suggest making the Ollama available on the Microsoft Store. This would simplify installation, updates, and management for Windows users in both individual and enterprise environments.

Key Advantages

  • Verified distribution through the Microsoft Store improves trust and security for IT administrators.
  • Centralized deployment through Intune and Microsoft Store for Business supports managed rollouts.
  • Automatic updates ensure version consistency across all systems.
  • Simple installation with a single click, no PATH setup or manual steps required.
  • Improved discoverability helps new developers and organizations adopt Rust more easily.

No plans for this right now, but perhaps in the future.
