Try the below commands, do change the file of appx to match with the one with you. Code: reg add "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\AppModelUnlock" /v "AllowAllTrustedApps" /t REG_DWORD /d "1" Dism /Online /Add-ProvisionedAppxPackage /PackagePath:NVIDIACorp.NVIDIAControlPanel_8.1.956.0_x64__56jybvy8sckqj.appxbundle /SkipLicense reg add "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\AppModelUnlock" /v "AllowAllTrustedApps" /t REG_DWORD /d "0"
Thanks for the suggestion. Please forgive me if I misunderstand. The goal is not to install MS Store (hell no!), so that I can download the UWP nVidia control panel. tbh, I'd rather keep the legacy control panel. It's more trustworthy than any MS UWP app. I believe if I kept Desktop App Installer component I could also achieve the same thing as you've suggested above (please correct me if I;m wrong). But it's always good to have more than one way to skin a cat I'm just really peeved at M$ for forcing people to use useless UWP apps that are waste people's time "buying" off store and downloading. It's just a convoluted over complicated process that from an end user perspective achieves absolutely nothing useful, making a simple process of upgrading one's graphics drivers a nightmare. </endrant> I guess I'm going to have to add back the Desktop App installer into my Windows and the image I install from @MSMG I'll give your suggestion a go later today.

"AccountProtection_MicrosoftAccount_Disconnected"=dword:00000000 Is working for 1809, and i'm not tried on 1903 or later Sorry for my bad english.
I did checked with the Appx manifest and it required the Full Trust privilege to install the appx, do test with the reg commands I have specified. You don't require the store or the Desktop App, just can use the DISM to install the App. The Nvidia is still providing both the Standard and the DCH drivers, if you don't want to go through the Store, then do download the Standard drivers and install it.
@MSMG Is it possible to add the new Microsoft Edge with the MSMG Toolkit or DISM offline..?? If so, could you tell me step by step how to do..?? Thanked in advance..!!
@Enthousiast Why when I use Ctrl + Shift + F3 to enter audit mode, it doesn't work for me on Windows 10 Pro, LTSB and LTSC on the user screen creation..?? Do you know..?? Thanks in advance..!!
I don't know, all i know is that i've entered audit mode 4 times last few days, 2 times for 18363.592 Home (x86 and x64) and 2 times for 17763.973 Enterprise 2019 LTSC (x86 and x64). You also can create a user account and when on the desktop, open an elevated cmd and enter: Code: cd sysprep and next Code: sysprep /audit /reboot and it should reboot in audit mode.
