New Windows apps and games
Bulk Image Sizer ($0.99)
The program is a bulk image resizer that supports several input and output formats including commonly used formats such as jpg or png.
The entire resizing operation is swiftly done; all it takes is to start the app, select the images that you want to resize or convert, and configure the available settings, e.g. output percentage or pixel count, before you hit start.
Advanced options are available to change the quality of images or the smoothing mode.
Device Enumeration and Pairing
The official Microsoft application uses an API to find internal and external devices connected to the system (including nearby over wireless or networking protocols), and displays information about these devices.
It can also pair wireless and networking devices with the system.
New Windows themes
Clouds PREMIUM, 20 4K images of cloud formations.
Notable updates
Microsoft Edge Dev update introduces several new features including the ability to download themes from the Chrome Web Store directly.
