Windows 10: Several games crashing immediately on launch, with no info such as error codes.

1. I downloaded the Minecraft Launcher from the Microsoft Store onto my new PC, however whenever I open it, I can see the launcher update popup for a split second, and then it instantly crashes.2. I have the same issue with Fortnite, Valorant, and Krunker Client. They all just immediately crash upon launching them. I have only tried these games so far3. SOME games DO work. Roblox, Lunar Client and Osu! all work fine. I cannot see a consistency between those that work and those that don't, other than all of the ones that don't work all crash in the same way - instantly crashing upon launching

Camera app crashing on launch with error code 0xA00F4273

Hello
BastianWeber ,

Thanks for trying out the troubleshooting steps. I do indeed think there's something wrong with your installation of the camera app, the error code indicates you are missing some dependencies. Could you file a issue via the Windows Feedback tool, in the
title tag it with your user name and the error code (EX: "Camera app crashing on launch with error code 0xA00F4273 #BastianWeber").

How to file an issue via Windows Feedback:



1) On your keyboard hit Ctrl+S

2) Type "Windows Feedback"

3) If this is your first time launching, you may need to sign in with your Microsoft Account

4) In "Search for feedback" textbox, enter title it something like "Camera app crashing on launch with error code 0xA00F4273 #BastianWeber"

5) Click "Add new feedback"

6) Click Problem radio button

7) For category select Apps and Games >Camera for the path

8) If it's available, click the "Reproduce" button, then go ahead and attempt to launch the camera app

9) After app fails to launch, go back to the Windows feedback and click "Done"

10) Tap the "Post new feedback" button

This will further help us diagnose the problem.

Thanks,
