Windows 10 app store

Is there a way for me to save a software from the Microsoft Store (or whatever it's called) on Windows 10? I have an app I want to save as an actual exe file instead of downloading it from the app store. I am just afraid they will discontinue the app in question.

Erm you could try pulling the files from the app folder however they all have so many DRMs so good luck.

@Mopy  The files are plenty and don't say what they are really. Lots of Xbox related folders, but I have no clue which one/ones would be the companion. Haven't found any exe files to far. 

@Skiiwee29   What do you mean? Since I don't have the file itself (it's somewhere, but can't find it so far).

I found this website with instructions to get it from Microsoft itself, but the files make no sense to me. Since they're not exe, not sure what to do with 'em lol:
