Although the information hero is a great hero of Windows 11, we must not forget that at the end of April, and according to StatCounter, Windows 10 accounted for about three of the four active installations Windows took 73.12%, followed by Windows 7 with 12.67% and Windows 11 in third place with a relatively modest 8.91%. In other words, Windows 10 is still by far the most used Microsoft operating system today.

And that’s pretty understandable, because Windows 11, for many people it is not yet mature enough. Many are waiting for the arrival of the 22H2 update, which promises a significant change in this regard, and on the other hand, there are people who do not have the option to update due to the requirements set by Microsoft, even if they want to. Windows 10, on the other hand, is a very advanced and quite safe option, which also has several years of life left.

However, this does not mean that we can be completely worried and that everything will always go smoothly. Unfortunately, Updates are still a relatively common source of problems. As a general rule, they solve problems, add improvements, and so on, but sometimes they can cause us occasional displeasure. And although the last cases we’ve seen in this regard have affected Windows 11, this time the problem is found in one for Windows 10.

More specifically, we are talking about Update KB5011831 for Windows 10, updated about a month ago, April 24th. This has fixed a good collection of glitches, but in return brings one new and unexpected one, namely that computers with AMD and Intel processors of their latest generations you cannot install software from the Microsoft Storeoperating system application store.

The systems in question use Windows 10 as the common denominator, they have installed the update, and their PC’s processor has Intel’s Control-flow Enforcement Technology (CET) or Shadow Stack, the equivalent of AMD, designed to mitigate certain risks.you security. So we’re talking aboutsides of Intel Tiger Lake and Alder Lake and Ryzen 5000 and the latest Zen 3+ Ryzen 6000 series.

Windows 10 users who are affected by this issue will encounter a message that appears when they try to install an application from the Microsoft Store mysterious error code 0xC002001B. Although they insist that it is impossible to try, they will not be able to install the software from the store.

The good news is that Microsoft has already released an out-of-band patch (that is, you must download and install it manually) to resolve the issue. You can find the application tools for the affected versions of Windows 10 on this page, and according to Redmond, everything will work normally again in Windows 10 after applying the fix.
