My experience of the Windows Store is of the fake knock-offs and similarly named apps that pop up as results in my start menu when I press "Start" and start typing the name of something I already have installed. They always seem to pop up for a couple of seconds before the actual application I'm searching for shows up. As a result I've come to the conclusion that I can't trust anything in the store itself and have never used it.

You can disable those search results. I'm not on a Windows 10 computer right now so I can't tell you where to look, but I found the settings fairly easily once it gave up trying to search the internet for a "settings" program. Do that and the search function will suck a lot less.
