How do I update the microsoft store app?

Hi, good day! I'm John Dev a Windows user like you and I'll be happy to assist you today. I know this has been difficult for you, Rest assured, I'm going to do my best to help you.

When was the last time it worked properly?

If you have a third-party VPN or Antivirus installed, please try to temporarily uninstall it then check if the issue persists.

Please try changing your Region to United States if it helps.

Please let me know if you have tried the methods below.

**Reset the Microsoft Store cache

Press the Windows Logo Key + R to open the Run dialog box,

type wsreset.exe -i

and then select OK.

Note:

A blank Command Prompt window will open, and after about ten seconds the window will close, and Microsoft Store will open automatically.

Find the Microsoft Store Install Service and double click, If the status is Running, right click it then select Restart

Dear John,

Thanks for the help. I tried every method, and none of them worked. The 3rd method (**Please try to run SFC and DISM to check for any system errors and corrupted files.) did not even happen because it said I needed elevated permissions to run DISM. Do you have any other methods I could try to resolve this issue? I really need access to the Microsoft Store for my email amongst other things.

Kind Regards,

Ahmad
