Microsoft disclosed a non-security Windows 10 22H2 issue where WinAppSDK 1.6.2 blocks updates/uninstalls of packaged apps (e.g., Teams), triggering “Something happened on our end” and 0x80073CFA errors; it pulled the package, released the KB5046714 preview fix, and advised installing WinAppSDK 1.6.3 three times as a workaround, with a PowerShell command provided to detect impacted systems. The article also notes other recent Windows update pauses and rollbacks.
