I had this problem too. I was showing my friend this problem and trying to prove it wasn't working, and a thing I did was spam-press the "Retry" button quickly and after a few seconds of clicking, it actually worked and you would know if it works because it would say something like "Searching for Updates...".
Microsoft store roblox not working
Description of the problem: When I click to open it, a window appears with a white background and the roblox symbol in the middle and after a few seconds it closes.

I'm Amr, an independent advisor.
Go into Settings > Apps > Apps & Features > Roblox > Advanced Options and choose Reset. After it resets restart the PC and try again.
If that fails go into Microsoft Store app Settings (three dots at the top right of the page) to choose Updates, apply any Roblox Updates, and restart the PC.
If that fails then in Apps & Features uninstall Roblox, restart the PC then go into the Store Settings > My Library to reinstall it.
- If you are able to open MS Store, open MS Store > Click on your profile picture on the top right and sign out. Then sign in again.
- Try to reset the app
Windows Key+i > Apps > Scroll down to this App > Click this App > Advanced options > Reset
- Windows Key+i > Apps > Scroll down to this App > Click this App > Uninstall. Reinstall from Microsoft Store
- Run Windows Store Apps Troubleshooter
Windows Key+X > Click Settings > Click Update & Security> Click Troubleshoot > Scroll down to the bottom > Click Windows Store Apps > Click Run the Troubleshooter
- Reset Microsoft Store through Command Prompt
Type cmd in Windows Search box > Right click on Command Prompt > Run As Administrator > Type WSreset.exe and click Enter > Reboot your computer
- Re-register All Store apps (You will get many Reds, ignore them)
Windows Key+X > Windows Powershell (Admin) > Copy the following from below and right-click in Powershell to paste > Enter > Restart your computer
Get-AppXPackage -AllUsers | Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register "$($_.InstallLocation)\AppXManifest.xml"}
- Uninstall & Reinstall Store
Windows Key+X > Windows Powershell (Admin) > Copy the following from below and right-click in Powershell to paste > Enter
Get-AppxPackage -allusers *WindowsStore* | Remove-AppxPackage
Copy the following from below and right-click in Powershell to paste > Enter > Reboot your computer
Get-AppxPackage -allusers *WindowsStore* | Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register “$($_.InstallLocation)\AppXManifest.xml”}
