In NetSupport School version 12 a native Tutor App for Windows 8/8.1 and 10 was introduced, this was designed to leverage the benefits of mobile teaching on Windows touch-enabled devices.

The Tutor App includes the ability for the teacher to launch, monitor and restrict Windows Store Applications from Students. By default, the Tutor App includes a pre-defined list of common Windows Store Apps for the teacher to select. However, there may be additional Windows Store Apps that are not included. NetSupport provides a utility called the Windows Store App Exporter (WindowsStoreAppExporter.exe), allowing teachers to import these apps.

This utility is installed with the normal Windows desktop NetSupport School Tutor on Windows 8\8.1 and 10:

32bit C:\Program Files\NetSupport\NetSupport School\WindowsStoreAppExporter.exe
64bit C:\Program Files(x86)\NetSupport\NetSupport School\WindowsStoreAppExporter.exe

A copy of the WindowsStoreAppExporter.exe is also available to download here:
