Thank you @lklock for reporting this - this is a known issue in the Microsoft App Store build.

If you are comfortable using the unsigned build, you can install the latest from https://github.com/njthomson/SrvSurvey/releases.

In the mean time, I am looking into getting that specific fix pushed into the official build.

I just installed the latest release and it works now. Thank you !

Thank you @lklock for letting me know.

I have submitted a fix for the Microsoft App Store, but it takes a few days for the submission to go through.

At this time I would not recommend returning to that now you've used the GitHub build, but it would be safe for the next major release coming up soon.
