My apps from SD card not working

I have stored some apps on SD card. I did it by normal way in settings, no roots, no hacks. It worked perfectly. But last weekend it stopped working.

I have Xperia XZ (F8331) with the Android 8.0.0

Every app on SD card has blank android icon and SD card warning in the up-right corner.

When I want to run it, it display error message: Cannot open APPNAME. App is stored on SD card.

I have access to SD card, I can see files on it and I can store photos on it. I am sure, it is not corrupted. I tried to remove card and insert it back, but nothing changed.

What can I do to solve it?

Delete app and install again.

See what happens.

Trial and error is often frustrating but it learns you find an equilibrium between your wishes and the devices shortcomings.

Ok then... it is about 20 apps with this problem (all apps on SD). It is really frustrating.
