Windows 10: Windows Store games not loading after disconnect.

Hi,

My Microsoft Store games (Minecraft Dungeons and Two Point Hospital in this case) are stored on an external SSD. Needed to get into my PC case so disconnected the drive. Accidentally forgot to reconnect the drive and booted the PC, checking if it was ok.

Restarted PC with drive connected but it wouldn't let me use anything that was previously on the SSD, it gives a blue box with "This app can't open" "Check the Windows Store for more info about Two Point Hospital™."

The drive is working fine, Steam games and others load without problem.

Thanks in advance.

Pre-loaded games won't uninstall

I'm not really into some of the games that were pre-loaded into my PC but when I try to bring up the games from the Start menu and click on 'uninstall' it takes me to the control panel, and I don't see the games listed there for me to uninstall. Suggestions, please? Thanks! ~P
