As of the last time I went looking… CreateProcess() was not an API that was exposed to applications in the sandboxed environment app store applications run in.

Why do you think it would be hard to add BOINC to the MS Store?
It looks potentially easy:

    Hi David,

    With the upcoming Creators Edition of Windows 10, how people can install
    applications is going to change. There are going to be three options, with 
the
    first default on for now:

    1. Install apps from anywhere.

    2. Install apps from anywhere but warn me about that and where possible 
point
    out similar apps from the Microsoft Store.

    3. Install only apps from the Microsoft Store.

    Thoughts are that MS will eventually set the third option as default and for
    users to be completely with their hands in their hair if they want to 
install
    something else.

    I doubt BOINC can be added to the MS Store, but this is probably something
    you'll want to look into.
