There’s no doubt about it: the official Yahoo Mail app on the Windows Store is one of the best email clients available for Windows 10 users, with the app returning a year after it was pulled from the Windows Store back in the fall of 2014. Now, Yahoo! is looking to bank on the rise in popularity of Windows 10 by constantly improving the app. Recently, it received a fresh update on the Windows Store, with the changelog informing us about certain security fixes.

We’ve reached out to Yahoo to learn more about this update and will change the article if and when we have more details. The update itself clocks in at around 3MB, as you can see from the screenshot from below:

Radu Tyrsina has been a Windows fan ever since he got his first PC, a Pentium III (a monster at that time). For most of the kids of his age, the Internet was an amazing way to play and communicate with others, but he was deeply impressed by the flow of information and how easily you can find anything on the web. Prior to founding Windows Report, this particular curiosity about digital content enabled him to grow a number of sites that helped hundreds of millions reach faster the answer they're looking for.
