6.1.1 update. Apps now not updating S23 Ultra

[Seether]

This is NOT resolved!!!

After the update, I have several apps that are not updating. All with the same error message. Reboot doesn't work. Any help, please?

A workaround has been found by a member and has posted here in the thread.

Summary

"To anyone who still has a work profile (or is willing to test it):

If you go to "Security and Privacy" > App Security > app protection, click the 3 dots in the upper right corner > App protection settings > disable "auto scan when installing apps", does this work for you?

Even with work profile, I seem to be able to update and download again."

Thank you Joost88!

Update: 6 Nov

No reply from Samsung several weeks later, really bad form. The post says resolved; I didn't change the status as, in my opinion, the issue isn't resolved - it's a workaround not a fix.

I am unsure if I will upgrade to S25 now.

I really like my Galaxy phone, had them for many years now. I know that Samsung will fix the problems, but honestly, they shouldn't have happened in the first place.

I'm having the same issue. So frustrating!

Same here. Banking apps unusable as forced updates fail

Having same issue with pokemon go and brawl stars 😞

Installing secure folder, and add an app by the google app store is for me the solution that works.

It is a workaround.

I think there are access right problems in some protected folders in the phone.

I hope Samsung will correct that soon ...

Didn't work for me...unfortunately.

Latest update from support. Guys, submit update errors to get more info to Samsung. Go well, be happy 😊

Guys and girls, I think I cracked it. First I have disabled my work profile then rebooted. Did not help. Then I removed my work profile completely and rebooted again.

All the problematic apps started updating and I could finally install back my banking app too. So far no new updates in the last 1 hour.

I know it is just a workaround, since I did not try reinstalling my work profile, I have a secondary phone I will use for this purpose.

I hope this helps you all. Let me know. 😉👍

I just tried reinstalling the work profile to see if that would be a problem.. so far, 10 apps installed without issues..  You're my hero!

The same problem here, but I have the S24, model SM-S921B/DS.

Same scenario as mentioned by you guys. I will try the steps mentioned by cefre00.
