You can get Horizon from the main sources:

This is the recommended source for most users, you can get Horizon easily here

Winget

If you prefer installing your apps from the command line, you can do so via winget

winget install HorizonBrowser

GitHub releases (advanced)

[!WARNING] You might not receive updates if you install Horizon this way, thus this method is only recommended for advanced users

If you like to get the msix for yourself and install without winget or Microsoft Store, you can get the package here

You have to get the dependencies for your architecture (either X86, X64 or ARM64) as well as the main package. Then you can install them via PowerShell or App installer

Add-AppxPackage ".\Microsoft.WindowsAppRuntime.1.7_7000.456.1632.0_arm64__8wekyb3d8bbwe.msix"
Add-AppxPackage ".\HorizonBrowser_10.0.5.0.msixbundle"
