Hello all, I needed to seek out some help with updating my Xbox app on my PC. I have long ago obliterated automatic update on my Windows 10 PC but now I decided I want to give this app a go and it wont work without the latest version. Is there a work around to get it updated without automatic updates working? Windows store as you all well know won't cooperate with automatic updates off. A work around or insight would be really great and appreciated.

Windows 10 Home
Version 1703
OS Build 15063.322

The store tells me to turn on automatic updates to do anything including installing new apps. Trying this approach I fear would cause me to lose the app for good. Thank you for the suggestion.
