Introduction
Many People use Google Search as their main search engine and Google Chrome as their default browser. Good news is that Google made their applications ready for Windows 8, some of these applications are ready to be installed directly from the Windows Store. In this article, I will be showing you how easy it is to download and install both Google Search and Google Chrome into Windows 8 and how they are automatically pinned to the Start Screen
 1. From the Windows 8 Start Screen, type google and then click on Store
2. The Windows Store will open, click on Google SearchÂ
3. The Google Search application page in the Windows Store will open, as you can see, its a free application. Click on the Install button

6. To install Google Chrome, you can do this in two ways, either type google while you are on the Start Screen and then click on Store or go directly to http://www.google.com/chrome using Internet Explorer 10
However, If you choose to go for the Windows Store, Google Chrome can’t be installed directly from the Windows Store, you have to click on Go to publisher’s website. Once clicked this will open Google Chrome install page.

Accept the license terms by clicking on Accept and Install
A security warning dialog window will pop up, click on Run
Google Chrome will start to download and install automatically
