Photoshop Elements 2019 trial stuck on launch window

I'm trying to install the Photoshop Elements trial from the Microsoft store, but when I go to launch it, it gets stuck on a launch window that just has the message "Setting up environment for first launch", and won't proceed past that.

I've tried restarting my PC, and reinstalling the program with no luck

 

Any help would be appreciated

    The latest version is 2020. Give that a try free for 30 days.
