Hello :) I am trying to install an app on my brand new laptop (Windows 11). It keeps popping up with an error saying 'The app you're trying to install isn't a Microsoft-verified app', with no option to 'Install anyway'.

I have tried to run through the following - Choose where to get apps in Windows 11 Tutorial
However, I get to step 3 (in option 1) and there is no option for me to select "choose where to get apps'. The options start with 'Share across devices'. Any ideas to why I don't have that option?

I have also tried going to the 'Privacy & security' > 'For Developers' > 'Developer Mode' - and tried turning that both on and off, but it doesn't make any difference.

Any other suggestions?

Hello Tasha, and welcome. :alien:

If you have a Windows 11 in S mode edition installed, you will only be able to install apps from the Microsoft Store until you switch out of S mode.
