    Legacy Photos app doesn't work without Photos installed


    I am on a recently freshly installed copy of Windows 10 Pro. From within the Photos app, I used the button within settings to go to the Store download page for Photos Legacy and installed it. I uninstall Photos and attempt to launch Photos Legacy and I am met with an error message that persists on Retry and closes the app on Close.I closed the app and uninstalled it but was not able to find it in the store again.I was only able to get to the store page for the Legacy Photos app through a different support forum link found by googling the issue and not simply by searching the store:https://answ
