#### Downloading ARC without using the app store
If an IT environment prevents the use of the Windows Store app or limits access to the retail store, IT administrators can make this app available through other offline deployment paths.
This deployment path can be enabled with the following steps:
1. Go to the [Store For Business website](https://businessstore.microsoft.com) and sign-in with an Azure AD identity.
1. Go to **Manage Settings**, and turn on **Show offline apps** under **Shopping experience** as described at https://businessstore.microsoft.com/en-us/manage/settings/shop
1. Go to **shop for my group** and search for the [Advanced Recovery Companion](https://businessstore.microsoft.com/store/details/advanced-recovery-companion/9P74Z35SFRS8) app.
1. Change the **License Type** box to offline and click **Manage**.
1. Under Download the package for offline use click the second blue **“Download”** button . Ensure the file extension is .appxbundle.
1. At this stage, if the Desktop PC has Internet access, simply double click and install.
1. The IT administrator can also distribute this app through System Center Configuration Manager (SCCM) or Intune.
1. If the target PC has no Internet connectivity, some additional steps are needed:
1. Select the unencoded license and click **“Generate license”** and under **“Required Frameworks”** click **“Download.”**
1. PCs without internet access will need to use DISM to apply the package with the dependency and license. In an administrator command prompt, type:
```
C:\WINDOWS\system32>dism /online /Add-ProvisionedAppxPackage /PackagePath:"C:\ARCoffline\Microsoft.AdvancedRecoveryCompanion_1.19050.1301.0_neutral_~_8wekyb3d8bbwe.appxbundle" /DependencyPackagePath:"C:\ARCoffline\Microsoft.VCLibs.140.00.UWPDesktop_14.0.27629.0_x86__8wekyb3d8bbwe.appx" /LicensePath:"C:\ARCoffline\Microsoft.AdvancedRecoveryCompanion_8wekyb3d8bbwe_f72ce112-dd2e-d771-8827-9cbcbf89f8b5.xml" /Region:all
