[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?

PS C:\Windows\system32> Add-AppxPackage -Path "C:\Users\echow\Downloads\WinStore_12010.1001.3.0_x86.appx"

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.
