Description

I am unable to update any apps installed via AppStore PAL.

I do get the notification that a new update for an app is available, but when I go to the My Apps tab, I see no updates available.

When I go to the page for the app with an update, I can see under What's New that a newer version is available but there is no update button anywhere.

I have enabled all relevant Settings including Auto Manage Installed Apps
