On Xbox Series S, the Games and Apps is gone from dev mode. Can I get it back?

I purchased a license and activated DEV MODE on the Xbox Series S, with the purpose of running some SNES games I definitely own... But part of the procedure involves using the Games and Apps tab to set Retroarch as a game. Without that, it doesn't have access to all the system resources. The problem is that the tab disappeared and I don't know how to get it back. Anyone have the knowledge to fix this? I really don't want to reset my Xbox to factory just because of that... thanks

    I was under the impression that Dev Mode couldn't give you full access to the Xbox's power. /r/XboxHomebrew might be able to help you out. This might help you with space though....

      It does not give access to everything, but it is certainly different. Thank you for the video, but the tab "Games and Apps" is already where it should be in the video. That used to be the case...

      It doesn't come back even if I reactivate.
