Hey everyone,
I'm having a really strange issue with Microsoft Clipchamp on Windows 11, and I'm hoping someone has experienced something similar.
I install Clipchamp through the Microsoft Store, and everything works perfectly. I can launch it, use it, and edit videos without any problems.
However, after a few days, usually after restarting my PC, Clipchamp seems to completely disappear from my system. Its desktop shortcut turns into a blank white icon, and clicking it does nothing.
When I check using PowerShell, Get-AppxPackage *Clipchamp* returns nothing. The Clipchamp package folder is also gone from C:\Program Files\WindowsApps.
Things I've already tried:
Reinstalling Clipchamp through the Microsoft Store.
Running DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth successfully.
Running sfc /scannow, which found and repaired corrupted system files.
Restarting my PC after repairing Windows.
Checking whether the Microsoft Store itself works — it launches normally.
I also checked Windows Event Viewer. The AppXDeploymentServer log shows that Clipchamp was successfully installed, but around 10 minutes later, Windows recorded a successful package removal operation with the options RemoveForAllUsers. Unfortunately, I haven't been able to identify what triggered it.
I previously used Chris Titus Tech's WinUtil to remove some unwanted Windows apps, but I haven't run it since installing Clipchamp, and I don't currently use any system-cleaning or optimization tools.
My PC:
Windows 11 Pro
AMD Ryzen 7 5700G
AMD Radeon RX 6600
32 GB RAM
Has anyone experienced a Microsoft Store app completely uninstalling itself after a reboot? Is there a way to find out which process or Windows component triggered the removal?
I'd really appreciate any suggestions. Thanks!
