This app can't run on your PC

My PC keeps giving me a message that says, "This app can't run on your PC. To find a version for this PC check with software developer." I disregarded it the first time and just closed it but it keeps coming back. I've looked for solutions everywhere and none of them work. I feel like I've been having problems all the time ever since I upgraded to windows 11. I don't know what to try anymore to get rid of this.

    THIS DOES NOT WORK! @Juliet Erum

    I am simply trying to run a setup file from UAD Audio as i am updating the software, which should be windows 11 compatible. In compatibility mode there is no option pass windows 8. This also happened with Firefox a program that should except updates without issue, and also a few other programs. Some work after uninstall and re-install others do not. This is a WINDOWS 11 problem which needs to be addressed and fixed. Its not an individual program error nor user issue.

    I finally able to install the application not from Miscrosoft store.I really did not know how I did it,but after some tweaking of setting,I finally able to install it.One way I remember is downloading directly from the publisher website.The apps was previously downloaded from a vendor website.Glad that I solved it.I am now using the apps and it is running normal as it should be.Scan it with Dfender and it is OKAY.
