Win10 does the same on the full start screen but it puts Apps (and there's tons of them) first and the Programs section is way to the left (offscreen).
I never intended to get anything important (free or not) via the Store so it makes no difference to me. But I'll be passing on the word.
I expected it to be like the XBOX store,which did not use to remove stuff even if they stopped offering it. That just changed: they just announced that the XFINITY app was going away. And the way they described it was "will be removed". I don't use it but I'll keep the ear prepped for the screams to come.)
Not. A. Good. Policy.
They should just let the user delete it when it stops working.

I would have taken "will be removed" to mean removed from the store so no new installs and no updates. But after seeing this I don't know. Is it possible to get apps from anyplace other than the Windows app store? I know that for Kindle the Win 7 version still works.
