I'm trying to download ARC Raiders on my pc through the Microsoft store, and whenever I click get, a UI pops up and says, "You're almost ready to play, to play games on your PC, we need to install some gaming components. You only need to do this once." I click Download nothing happens. I tried downloading a random different game, and it said the same thing.

    If even with the steps provided by the Q&A Assist the problem persists, the ideal is that you contact Xbox support through this link;

    To fix the issue with the Microsoft Store where it prompts you to install gaming components but nothing happens when you click download, you can try the following steps:

    1. Check for Windows Updates: Ensure that your Windows is up to date, as updates can include important components needed for gaming.
    2. Verify Gaming Services: Make sure that the Gaming Services are up to date. You can do this by running PowerShell as an administrator and executing the following commands:
         get-appxpackage Microsoft.GamingServices | remove-AppxPackage -allusers
         start ms-windows-store://pdp/?productid=9MWPM2CQNLHN
      
      This will remove the existing Gaming Services and prompt you to reinstall them from the Microsoft Store.
    3. Check Firewall/Proxy Settings: Ensure that your firewall or proxy settings are not blocking the required endpoints for the Microsoft Store. You can refer to the documentation on managing connection endpoints for Windows 11 Enterprise to verify this.
    4. Re-register Microsoft Store: If the above steps do not work, you can try re-registering the Microsoft Store. Open a PowerShell window (not elevated) and run:
         Get-AppxPackage *Microsoft.WindowsStore*
      
      If it shows that the Store is installed, you can register it again using:
         Add-AppxPackage -RegisterByFamilyName -MainPackage Microsoft.WindowsStore_8wekyb3d8bbwe
      
    5. Try a Different Network: Sometimes, network issues can prevent downloads. Try switching to a different network or resetting your network settings.

    If these steps do not resolve the issue, you may want to consult the Microsoft support documentation for further troubleshooting guidance.
