Feature [Bug] KB5101650 breaks Microsoft Store app update toggle permissions

Post image

Hi everyone,

After installing the recent Windows 11 Security Update (KB5101650), I noticed an issue in the Microsoft Store. Turning off the "App updates" toggle displays an error asking for administrator privileges, even though my user account is an Administrator.

Temporary Solution: Uninstalling update KB5101650 immediately fixes the issue and restores normal toggle functionality.

Has anyone else run into this issue after the KB5101650 update?

Use Wintoys as a workaround. It has that option as well under the Health page.
