Alexa for Windows 10 is Not Available: 4 Ways to Get it

Alexa is a popular cloud-based voice service available on over 100 million devices. However, many reported that Alexa for Windows 10 is not available.

We covered a similar subject in our Cortana isn’t available guide, but since this is a third-party application, the methods we’re going to use have to different, so let’s get started.

Why can’t I download Alexa on Windows?

• It’s possible that the app isn’t available for your country yet.
• Glitches and issues with Microsoft Store cache.
• Date and time aren’t correct on your PC.

What can I do if Alexa for Windows 10 is not available?

1. Check for availability

1. The first thing you should do is check if the app is available in your country. Open the Microsoft Store and type Get Alexa in the search box, or simply go to the Alexa Microsoft Store page.
   
2. If the download page says Alexa is currently not available, it means the app is not available for your country yet.
3. Follow the next step to download and install the app manually.

2. Now go to Adguard Store’s official website.
