Link for a direct download of Kazoo (Windows)

[d88]

For some reason, my new Windows laptop will not install any app from the Windows store including Kazoo. It may just be a temporary thing while the laptop gets to grip with all the updates/security patches but being male and of a certain vintage, I'm very keen to get Kazoo working! Ironically I've been able to install Kazoo server and Konfig direct from the Linn site without issue, however, Kazoo appears to seem to be only available through the Windows store.

Before I go through Linn help, does anyone know if there is a direct link somewhere where I can download Kazoo outside of the Windows store?

Thanks in advance

Not that I can find. You’re probably correct about having to wait for updating to complete.

When trying to download the awful Kazoo with an awful rating on the Microsoft Store and other sites (use Kinsky from Linn Docs unsupported legacy products), you have to go through the Windows Store as Linn unwisely redirects you from Linn Docs to the Windows Store, where you can see the understandable atrocious comments and low scoring of Kazoo.

This is the only way now to get Kazoo as far as I'm aware. I use Kinsky AND Kazoo, but Kinsky is very old now (circa 2007) but far superior in my opinion and yes, works faultlessly on Win 11 Pro if that's what you have.

Thanks guys, I've managed to get a workaround going until I can get Kazoo up & running. To be fair this is not a Kazoo issue, more a windows store issue.

Thanks again.

Finally we got there, after a big update on my laptop, Kazoo was able to install and is now up and running.

Thanks Imseti about the tip about Kinski, it's always useful to have a backup and I did manage to get it working, although I have a firestick in the back of my Majik DSM and was able to get Kazoo working through Amazon apps, not perfect and I prefer a clean direct solution so at least I've got that now.
