How to Install the Disney+ App on a Windows 10 PC

You can install the official Disney+ app on a Windows 10 PC through the Microsoft Store. Disney+ lists Windows 10 and Windows 11 computers among its supported devices and directs PC users to the Store. The app gives you a dedicated way to open the service from Windows. Older guides that only describe making an Edge shortcut are out of date for this installation method. See Disney+’s Windows device guide for its current platform guidance.

Before you install

Make sure your PC can connect to the internet and open Microsoft Store. You may be asked to sign in to a Microsoft account to download the app. Keep your Disney+ login details nearby; installing the app does not create a Disney+ account or subscription. Disney+ plans and available titles vary by region, so check the service where you live if you are not sure your account is eligible.

  • Supported device: Disney+ lists Windows 10 and Windows 11 computers and tablets as supported devices.
  • Microsoft Store access: Use the Store app or the official Disney+ listing in Microsoft Store.
  • Disney+ account: You will sign in after opening the app. Streaming access depends on your account and plan.

Install the Disney+ app from Microsoft Store

  1. Open Microsoft Store. Select Start, type Microsoft Store, and open the app from the search results. Use the Store listing for the official app instead of downloading an installer from a third-party site. Disney+’s support page points Windows users to Microsoft Store for the download.
    Open Microsoft Store from the Windows 10 Start menu.
  2. Search for Disney+. In the Store, select the search box, enter Disney+, and open the result with that exact app name. If you prefer, open the official listing linked above and choose the option to view it in Microsoft Store. Check that you are on the Disney+ app listing before proceeding, because search results can include unrelated apps and guides.

  3. Start the installation. Select Get or Install on the listing. The button label can vary depending on the Store state. If Microsoft Store asks you to sign in, use your Microsoft account and return to the listing. Wait for the download and installation to finish; when the Store offers Open, the app is ready.

  4. Open Disney+ and sign in. Select Open in Microsoft Store, or press the Windows key and search for Disney+ in Start. Enter the email and password for your Disney+ account, then choose a profile if prompted. Once signed in, select a title to stream. If you share the PC, sign out when finished or use the profile controls available in the app.

Find the app again or pin it

After installation, Disney+ appears in Windows Start search. Type Disney+ to launch it without reopening the Store. For quicker access, right-click the Disney+ result in Start and use the available pin option to add it to Start or the taskbar. If the app does not appear immediately, wait for the Store installation to complete and search again.

If Microsoft Store cannot install the app

First, check that the Store is online and that you are signed in if it requests an account. Reopen the Disney+ listing from the official Store link and review the message shown on the page. If the app is unavailable for your device or storefront, Disney+ notes that device support and service availability can vary by territory. Check its Windows support page for the latest compatibility details.

You can also watch in a browser. Disney+ supports current versions of Microsoft Edge, Google Chrome, Firefox, and Opera on Windows 10 and newer; see its computer and browser requirements. In Edge, you can open DisneyPlus.com and select Settings and more > More tools > Apps > Install this site as an app. This creates a separate window and shortcut for the website, not another Microsoft Store installation. Microsoft documents this option in its guide to installing and managing apps in Edge.

Two limits to know

The Windows app does not make Disney+ titles available offline. Disney+ says downloads are not supported on computers or Windows 10 and 11 tablets, so plan to stream while connected to the internet. See its download rules for supported devices.

Windows 10 itself reached the end of general support on October 14, 2025. A compatible Disney+ app can still run on a Windows 10 PC, but that does not restore regular Windows security updates. Microsoft recommends moving to a supported Windows release; read its Windows 10 end-of-support notice before deciding what to do with the PC.
