I have a windows 11 laptop from my workplace. I'm not an administrator so I have the usual restrictions on installing software. Happily, the security policy allows me to install Inkscape from the microsoft store. Yesterday it stopped working. No errors, just no response when I start the app. I eventually found that the ms store silently auto-updated from version 1.3.2 to 1.4.2. I tried uninstalling, resetting, reinstalling, etc. Now the store reports an error and I can't install. Has anybody else seen this?

I recall seeing convo on this issue in the chat. Win store packaging is a challenge; maybe only one dev handles it.
Yea, running into the same thing. :(
Had this exact same issue, no clue how to fix it though.
Same here. Tried again today and now I'm back on Inkscape 1.3.2 (091e20e, 2023-11-25, custom).
Looks like it's being addressed: https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/issues/5867
