EAM can quarantine Windows Store apps but it cannot restore them back to their own place. Those apps on my PC are now corrupted and I have to go through the tedious process to delete the file in safe mode so I can reinstall. Just... why? I have an allergy to AVs that break programs. Time to find something new.

May I ask which app was damaged? Usually EAM doesn't pay attention to store apps.
I've already submitted it and it got whitelisted. Quicklook. EAM said it was doing dll injection.
Get QuickLook - Microsoft Store

Logging into Windows 10 as safe mode and deleting the folder from ProgramData was the only way to repair the app. I don't mind if Windows Store apps get quarantined but you guys should implement restoring back to quarantine because regular users and admins do not have access to the ProgramData folder without changing permissions in many places.
