Product Manager is not a “Microsoft-verified app”??? …can’t install

[talosfour]

I’m trying to reinstall Product Manager after having to wipe the drive due to a laptop repair issue.  When clicking on the file “Toontrack Product Manager Installer”, I get a message “The app you’re trying to install isn’t a Microsoft-verified app”.  I tried a few things, but just cannot get past this to install Product Manager.

Operating system: Windows 11

Found the answer…  Switching out of S mode in Windows – Microsoft Support

S Mode is enabled in the Home editions of Windows 11.  S Mode prevents loading apps that are NOT available in the Microsoft Store, such as the Toontrack Product Manager.  Fortunately, S Mode can be disabled.

1. To switch out of S mode, click here to open the Microsoft Store to the Switch out of S mode (or similar) page.
2. On the Switch out of S mode (or similar) page, select the Get button. After you see a confirmation message on the page, you’ll be able to install apps from outside of the Microsoft Store.

Operating system: Windows 11

I am having the same issue on my Win 10 laptop which is not in S mode. In fact, it does not appear to be a feature in Win 10. I down loaded and ran the installer but the page reverts back to showing the installer icon without installing the Product Manager.

Right after my post, I tried downloading the Win 7 version instead of 10, and it worked as expected.
