    "This app can't run on your PC ...."


    First off, yes I searched, but specifically I am curious as what triggers this? I have seen it on my wife's computer and now my Windows 10 Pro 22H2 version desktop. I have not received this in the past, but Microsoft updates were recently installed.
    I downloaded a file from EaseUS a partiton management software, mostly as an update. Went to run the .exe file and got the message "This app can't run on your PC... etc etc."
    I went back a bit latter and it did install.

    Point is, what is triggering or causing this POP UP message to appear and stop installations?

    It is odd, huh? It seemed to be more prevalent after a recent MS Update. Have not experience it anytime before.
    Curious if anyone else has experienced this AND if there is some kind of work around?
