Microsoft Store Issues #7374

Open danthonywalker opened 2 months ago

danthonywalker commented 2 months ago

Hello,

I tried installing ShareX through the Microsoft Store, however, opening it and really doing anything with it results in constant errors. As shown below, it seems the Microsoft Store version is trying to use System32 as its directory.

This is a relatively clean install of Windows 11, with all non-Insider updates applied All I did was simply go to the Microsoft Store and click Install and these errors immediately showed up; I have tried uninstalling, repairing, and reinstalling several times with the same results.

Probably running it as administrator would help. Not sure how practical that is Also you can make it always run as administrator https://www.groovypost.com/howto/make-windows-11-apps-always-run-as-administrator/content-main/h2-2
