Describe the bug
Installing Folo from Microsoft Store lists the app as "Folo - follow everything in one place" which is aesthetically unpleasing to come across in start menu and settings.

Research direction
Start by locating the Microsoft Store packaging metadata that supplies the app's display name for Windows installations. Verify the change in a Windows 11 Microsoft Store installation; done means the Start menu and Settings list the app as "Folo" rather than the longer tagline.
