Windows Phone 8: Redownload All Your Previously Purchased Apps or Games

If you have just switched from a Windows Phone to another, you may want to find and download all the apps or games that you like. Finding them again in the Store is a hard task, and you may not even remember the names anymore. In this case, you can access the purchase history of your Windows account and install the apps in bulk from there.

1. Visit the Windows Phone Store from a computer. Click on the My Phone button at the top right of the screen, and choose Sign in. You must log into the current account that you use on your Windows Phone in order to re-download the purchased apps or games.
