[Tutorial] How to fix Microsoft apps (Photos, Store, Calculator, etc.) crashing on M1

btw. found most of the apps that atrstuck - only fighting with Movies & TV at the moment ... if someone finds the proper ID, it would be appreciated. Strangly, some apps listed as "arm" already work on my VM ... looks like Microsoft is already working on it

 

hi ,
i am getting this error in powershell can someone help.
Add-AppxPackage : Deployment failed with HRESULT: 0x80073CF3, Package failed updates, dependency or conflict
validation.

attached screeshot

 

you need to get the package for the UI.Xaml.2.4 aswell (should be in the same appxbundle)

 

cant get that done could you please explain in detail

 

Photo app is now running but cant find calculator app with x86.appx

 

So I followed the instructions, uninstalling Microsoft Store and downloading the 4 files (Framework, Runtime, VCLibs, and Microsoft.windowsStore_12011.1001.113.0_neutral...) in x64 and x86 and I still have not been able to successfully open the Microsoft Store! Is there something I am missing??

 

Same for me. I have tried x86, arm64 and x64 and could not get any to open.

 

Whenever I try to install the Windows Store I get this complaint about not being able to install due to a dependency on .Net Framework, but then it shows below that it's installed. Am I missing something?

I think I got this working by enabling the developer version of the Windows insider channel, as that channel appears to have x86 emulation. From there I was able to install the x86 versions of applications.

I am however, having trouble with anything that requires login with my microsoft account. A window pops up and quickly disappears, so I'm guessing some component must still be arm32 (which is incompatible on the M1 Mac) but i'm not sure what it could be or how to replace it.

 

I am seeing the same. Any application that requires logging into my Microsoft account will show a pop up window for a split second and then disappears.

 

I have been using Office365 apps just fine.

 

Windows store seems to be working now (Parallels build 50393, Windows 10 ARM build 21301). After making sure that Parallels and Windows 10 were fully up to date, I went to...

Settings... Apps... Microsoft Store... Advanced Options... Reset

After performing that reset, the Microsoft Store app now functions properly.

 

Did not work for me

 

It worked for me, but I had installed the x86 version as described above before. That stopped working after an update and I never bothered to install it again. After the reset the Store now works.
A reset probably won't help if you only have the ARM32 version installed.

 

For what it's worth, an update to Windows Store pushed down from Microsoft today, and the ARM32 build was replaced with x86 build, and it now works. Nothing I needed to do. It absolutely was broken prior to that, though. I didn't try any of the above workaround steps.

 

Seems to work for all the other ARM32 apps that previously weren't working too. I did encounter an odd problem that after updating some apps the taskbar became unresponsive, but a restart fixed that and the apps work.

 

Confermo, dopo laggiornamento di Parallels versione 50531 lo store e tutte le app che prima non funzionavano (store, mail ecc.) ora funzionano perfettamente per il momento

 

Except for the Weather app, oddly. It doesn't crash immediately, but it also just hangs on startup. It shows as 32-bit in Task Manager. Your mileage may vary.

 

True, the weather app starts, but it doesn't show the weather. Repairing or resetting the app doesn't help either. Oh well, it's still an improvement to the app not starting at all.

 

And with Build 21327 the weather app is now working too.
