For those who don't want to play with powershell, admin privileges etc etc.

Simply open Microsoft Store, click My Library (bottom left), click Get Updates (top right). That's it.

    Works fine on 2 machines (laptop and desktop) with win10. Does not work (URLs not clickable) on a laptop with win11. Both win10 computers have nvidia graphics cards, win11 laptop - intel XE Iris, so might be something like a bug in graphics driver. The only way I could make it working on win11 was switching to high-contrast theme, but I am not a big fan of those themes...

    Did not know it worked in high contrast themes on Win 11. That should help narrow down the bug if MS in fact cares about this project. Thanks

    It's so sad that MS can't get this problem fixed especially when this app is for a more efficient workflow!

    Thanks for offering Google messages as an alternate.

    However, it only works if you use google messages as your sms messaging app.

    If you don't use it, then its not going to work.
