IIRC the Windows Comixology app was retired some time ago (you were supposed to use browser instead). But I don't know much about the history of the Windows app.

The last Kindle for Windows I used regularly was the Universal version that ran on Windows Phone/RT/Windows 8 and later, and was only available from Microsoft Store. This no longer shows up in my Microsoft Library on my ancient Windows 10 PC, where it was installed at one time. I guess I would need to download the current version from Amazon to see what it is like, since it is also not listed in Microsoft Store.

I just got a cheap Windows 11 Pro system (I tried VMs but they all stink in one way or another). A fresh install features Kindle app prominently, but what it means is you are led to install Amazon App Store and then the Kindle for Android app from there, which is what I did. It seems to work well. I RDP to it from my Macs (I think I have app for iPad too), and it works great.
