I'm no longer able to install apps from the MS app store. Apps I've tried that fail, Prime Video, Hulu, Python 3.10.

  1. click GET on the app
  2. Click Install after a couple seconds, the install button goes back to its original state

What could be causing this?

Viewing the logs in Event Viewer shows,
