Microsoft launched a special E3 2019 Sale today; you can get plenty of games for up to 50 percent off currently.

Some apps are discounted for more than one week. Only new apps and games are listed below. Check out the previous post in the series for past offers that may still be valid.

New Windows apps and games

Justread

Justread is a reader for ePub books. The application supports text display customization and marking options.

You may use it to change the font family, font size, line spacing, and color scheme, and use highlight, wavy and underline markers.

PowerShell 7 (Preview 1)

The first preview release of the upcoming PowerShell 7.0 is now available for testing.

PowerShell 7 is a significant update that moves to .NET Core 3.0. Microsoft attempts to establish it as a replacement for the built-in Windows PowerShell 5.1.

Microsoft aims for (near) feature parity before it considers replacing the classic PowerShell with the new version.

Thunderbird (unofficial)

Thunderbird is a port of the open source desktop email client Thunderbird. The port replicates Thunderbird's functionality so that you may use it to manage email accounts, read RSS feeds, or use the built-in calendar and contacts management system.

New Windows 10 Themes

Notable updates

Microsoft Edge (Chromium) supports different interface languages. Users need to set a different language on edge://flags using the Language flag.

uBlock Origin was not listed in the extensions section of the Microsoft Store for some time "due to a bug". The extension is now available again.

Xbox app renamed to Xbox Console Companion

Xpotify, a third-party Spotify client for Windows 10, is now open source.
