Windows 10: "The app you're trying to install isn't a Microsoft-verified app"

Hello,


Every time I try to run an installer or executable file, a pop-up shows saying "The app you're trying to install isn't a Microsoft-verified app" and it won't let me run the installer. Every answer I see says to go to the 'Choose where to get apps' dropdown in Settings > Apps > Apps & features but there is no dropdown I am using 1909. However, I am the administrator, so according to other answers I shouldn't be getting this error.

So, to reiterate:

- I am the administrator

- My PC has been updated to the lastest version of Windows 1909

- There is no option in the pop-up or in Settings to change app recommendations


Below is a screenshot of my settings page 'Apps and features'. As you can see, there is no dropdown where I can change app recommendation settings, unlike what other people have said.

Thanks in advance,

:)

The app you're trying to install isn't a microsoft verified app

I am operating with

Windows 10 Home version 1903

Trying to install TurboTax 2019, I get the following error

"The app you're trying to install isn't a microsoft verified app"

I try to change my app recommendation settings and there is NO option to change installation method under apps & features. I have searched the web and tried the recommendations, to no avail. Is there a fix for this (other than upgrading
from Home to Pro for 99.00?

 

Microsoft Apps not installing

Hi aniketbhattacharya,

There's a possibility that there's an issue with your Microsoft Store. I suggest that
you try to reset your store cache by following the steps below:

• 
  Press Windows key + R.
  
• 
  Type "wsreset.exe" and press Enter.
  
• 
  Check if it takes you to a store page which displays that the cache has been reset.
  
• 
  Now try to open the store app and check.
  

We will wait for your response.

Regards.
