Microsoft store needs to have a section ONLY for Liveries

I go looking in the store for aircraft and even after i select the topic “aircraft” and start a search the window is full of Liveries and i have to spend time going through all the liveries I want to get to the aircraft I want and its really annoying.
Is this Microsoft’s way of direct merchandising to force the product on you ?
Any real store is properly organized into proper categories and the Microsoft store needs one for “Liveries” now that the Liveries have grown to epidemic proportions. While i see that I’m not the first person to take note of this now its 5 years in do you think after pulling all our money out you could assign an unpaid intern to clean up the catalogue. That’s what interns are for. Thank you,
Get it done MS.

Good suggestion.

A good way to do it is to click a few developers in the filters that you’d be interested in shopping. At least they moved night lighting to it’s own category. Even just aircraft there is a particular ■■■■■■ developer that’s always on sale hogging the first 20 spots or so(and no not the massive reno list in 2020 either, the other one)…

If I understand correctly your request, when you type in something in the search bar, even if you’ve previously selected the aircraft filter, results are including liveries and you don’t want to see the liveries ?
If you type in something in the search bar, the filters are deleted, you need to select again “Aircraft” to only see aircraft in the results:

If you read my initial post, i said i did just select “Aircraft” I know how search engines work my friend. Just Today i went looking to buy an A320 and the first one I came across was the LVR A320… But that was not untill i had already gone throuh “600” pages of Liveries and Airliner missions and routes. WTF .
Yes i counted them.
If i didnt know any better I would have said Doge had fired them all.
The lights are on but no one is certainly home at Microsoft.
Get it done Microsoft. GRRR.

It dosent need a bandaid, it needs a total fix !!! With respect phutyoo

Could you post a screenshot of your Marketplace search window ?, I may have missed something on the way you are searching.
600 results sounds like you have no filter applied.

If I search using “A320” I get 17 results (including liveries):

And if I add “Aircraft” filter just get 1 result:

= i see you looked at it and now its worse its clear there is no real index or sections for Liveries and Missions and there needs to be. Why?
When I did a search in “Aircraft” for A320 i get 365 search options of mainly liveries and mission routes for A320.
There isnt 363 different types of A320 aircraft
Your Microsoft, you have the money and the expertise. You need to get your heads together and get out of your staff rooms and clean up that mess in marketplace in MS2020.
Im sure its the same in 2024. How the hell can you find aircraft when is cluttered with garbage.
-------> the problem is in the coding..Microsoft can do coding cant they
“If” you select “aircfraft” type in the search box and not owned only

----------- >“Then” it defaults to “All” instead of “Aircraft only” and it all gets searched
--------------> just dont ignore the post, go and look at it.

Just a reminder that our volunteer forum moderators are not Microsoft Employees. @DementedCorn327 is simply looking to help reproduce your results.

It seems like the issue here is that the filter resets when you type in the search box, and then you have to re-click “Aircaft”, so the workaroud is to first search “A320” and then click on the “Aircraft” filter. I’ll let the team know about the filtering issue.
