All of my windows apps are greyed out/disabled or something?
Including my settings, so i can't even try to fix the issue with normal tutorials or fixes.
Also my microsoft store isn't/can't update apps or such (including itself) for some reason.
All of the microsoft apps are trying to update i assume, but because they can't theyre stuck in a suspended mode.
I have no idea what to do as i can't open my settings and also can't run things as admin. Please can you help.
