I tried uninstalling and reinstalling, and it still does not work. This happened randomly too as there are a few packages that I have that when I uninstall and reinstall it does the same for Ganache-CLI, but my CLI works. If I try to install another version of Ganache-UI it does not work either. Is there anything that I must do to fix this. Should I go to the source code, and clone it?

CodePudding user response：

I was able to install a previous release of Ganache through a .exe file. Apparently, the .appx installers are having problems on Windows 11. I ended up installing a very old release from 2020 that had a .exe file included with it.

That link is v2.5.4 - JohnnyCakes Cobbler

It is the most recent ui release that had a .exe installer. I do not even think that you can go the route of cloning the source code and compiling it into a .exe. From what I saw ganache-ui can only be compiled into a .appx right now.
