Windows 10: Windows 10 Pro has no Photos app

Hi,


My Laptop has Windows 10 but has no Photo app installed for some bizarre reason.


If I go onto the Microsoft Store and try and install in from there, it wont let me do it and say's not signed into device even though I am signed in from PC.


Any Suggestions will be much appreciated.
