            Bug ID: 58907
           Summary: Many Microsoft Store installers fail to start due to
                    missing Windows Runtime type
                    'Windows.Globalization.GeographicRegion'
           Product: Wine
           Version: 10.18
          Hardware: x86-64
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: -unknown
          Assignee: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org

console output with unhandled exception

Happens with:
Tiktok https://apps.microsoft.com/detail/9nh2gph4jzs4
Netflix https://apps.microsoft.com/detail/9wzdncrfj3tj
Prime Video https://apps.microsoft.com/detail/9p6rc76msmmj
Snapchat https://apps.microsoft.com/detail/9pf9rtkmmq69
Whatsapp https://apps.microsoft.com/detail/9nksqgp7f2nh

and likely many more. You'll need to switch the user agent to pretend to be on
Windows to be shown the download button labeled "Install". Otherwise the Store
only shows a "Copy link" button.

After working around bug 58905 with `winetricks dotnet48`, these installers run
into:

Unhandled Exception: System.Windows.Markup.XamlParseException: The invocation
of the constructor on type 'StoreInstaller.MainWindow' that matches the
specified binding constraints threw an exception. --->
System.TypeInitializationException: The type initializer for
'StoreInstaller.StoreEnvironment' threw an exception. --->
System.TypeLoadException: Could not find Windows Runtime type
'Windows.Globalization.GeographicRegion'.
