Windows 10: this app can't run.... but software installs on earlier WIndows 10 version.

This is a problem that started with updates or maybe just new builds of Windows 10.

I have a number of programs that are SUCESSFULLY installed on an earlier build of Windows 10 on another machine.

Specifically a Windows Surface. But before a version of the latest Windows


This not a version issue. This is not a 32bit issue.


I have disabled Smart screen, checked for corrupt registry files.

I even installed a new hardrive and loaded a new version of Windows 10.

Same issue when I tried to install any of the previously installed software.

"This app cannot run...."


The dialog window comes up way to fast for it to have run any part of the setup.exe.


Does anyone know how to disable the MS program that blocks these installs?


Thanks!

Installing Windows 10 on Lumia 920

Got a Lumia 822 with Windows 8.10.14203.306 (plus, also, ran WP 10 for a short while... to many problems in the earlier versions; so, I put 8.1 back).
And, Glance is not needed as an app add-on (as it was on WP 8.0 and WP8.1)... it is included in the settings and works great in WP8.1 update and WP10.

If you are in a country that WP10 is available at this time and your phone is listed, all you need do is sign up for the Windows 10 insider app on your phone and run update to install the WP10 preview... no hacking needed.
Or, you change your phone to US, as you did.
You don't have to do all the hacking this and that.


EDIT:
If you do not have Glance on your phone... you can try searching the app store for it and install or re-install it; or, try the app Nokia update and see if that will install any missing items.
There is a Glance screen bug, where some people are not getting the glance screen.
There are some other bugs where people have had to reset phone or re-install the everything.

Goodluck.
