'Is there other way to get the Microsoft Edge DevTools Preview without Microsoft store?
I always debug the WebView control with VS, I refer to the this official document Debug a WebView control in a UWP App.
Recently, I found there is a best way to debug the WebView control by using the Microsoft Edge DevTools Preview App.
The problem is that it seems the only way to install the tools is Microsoft Store. Unfortunately the Miscrosoft Store is blocked on my machine, I want to know is there any other way to get the Microsoft Edge DevTools Preview tool? Any help would be appreciated, thank you in advance.

I found this article https://windowsreport.com/download-microsoft-store-apps-without-store which seems to show a way of doing this.
I cannot state if it definitely works yet as I have to wait for my IT to department to decide if it can be allowed.
Steps are:
- Visit https://store.rg-adguard.net/
- Enter https://www.microsoft.com/en-gb/p/microsoft-edge-devtools-preview/9mzbfrmz0mnj
- Download the file ending in appxbundle (to it's own directory not just "downloads")
- Open Powershell as Admin
- Execute something like
Add-AppxPackage -Path "C:\Users\WindowsReport\Downloads\ee2546d7-f0e5-4aa2-be54-032299162322"(change path to the download directory you used earlier) - If you get errors you may need to download additional files from the same place you got the appxbundle file
