I am having an issue with Microsoft Edge. Whenever I try to download a site as an app, a box pops up saying:
"[Window Title] C:\Program Files\WindowsApps\Microsoft.MicrosoftEdge.Stable_124.0.2478.51_neutral__8wekyb3d8bbwe\pwahelper.exe [Content] Windows cannot find 'C:\Program Files\WindowsApps\Microsoft.MicrosoftEdge.Stable_124.0.2478.51_neutral__8wekyb3d8bbwe\pwahelper.exe'. Make sure you've typed the name correctly, then try again. [OK]"
After this, I am unable to use the app, even though the website works normally. I am not sure what this file is or why it is missing. I have tried reinstalling Edge and running several scans on Windows, but it still doesn't work. Can anyone help me solve this issue?
