Its possible the IT admin misconfigured, but blocking the terminal or the store would not make sense at this company since most employees need them on a daily basis.

Never! Couldn’t possibly be M$’s fault! It’s definitely somehow your IT department!

I mean, it is.

They should have used Linux.

Beautiful bug report

Expected Behaviour:

It would be pretty nice, if the terminal would open

That's definitely an issue with your IT department. My work Windows laptop came with the terminal accessible.

[-] grandma@sh.itjust.works 29 points 1 month ago

I mean I was able to open the terminal just fine a few hours ago

Maybe they've updated their security policies? Could be to prevent users from installing unapproved software via winget, etc.

I have definitely never done that myself, if anyone asks ...

It's a MS issue, not isolated
