Not sure if this is a ThinkPad specific problem or not, but...

**UPDATE:** I just got home from work and reinstalled the Microsoft Store, and it seemed to start behaving. The Microsoft Store loaded fine, and Lenvo Commercial Vantage/Lenovo Vantage Service are working properly. I have no idea if what I did actually fixed it, or if it just decided to work on its own.

Last night, I started setting up my brother's E15 Gen 1. Per the tips in the about section, I reinstalled Windows using the Lenovo recovery media. On this particular generation, that meant Windows 10 would be reinstalled, and I'd have to upgrade to Windows 11 from there.

After two attempts of writing the recovery media to a flash drive, I got the laptop reimaged, and I started working my way towards upgrading to Windows 11. When I finally got there, I tried installing Lenovo Commercial Vantage through the Microsoft Store. However, after a few seconds of loading, the store would say that it couldn't update, displaying the error code "0x8000000b." I tried manually installing Commercial Vantage, which worked, but now it won't install the Lenovo Vantage Service for some reason, manually or otherwise.

I know Windows 11 is a buggy, vibe-coded clusterfuck of an operating system, but he's using this for school, and they're gonna force him to use apps that'll only run on Windows. Unfortunately, that means Linux is out of the question. If anyone has any tips or has encountered these issues before, I'd really appreciate the help.
