It’s good to know someone else is reporting this, because I’m having the same issue, right after installing Windows. I get the same error message, with the same code, or sometimes it back the error code 0x80070057

Hi marvel kevin,

Open PowerShell admin and paste the following then hit enter.

Get-AppxPackage -allusers Microsoft.WindowsStore | Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register "$($_.InstallLocation)\AppxManifest.xml"}

I appreciate the help, but none of those conventional solutions work @BryceSor . There are several users on Reddit reporting the same thing too, so this can’t be a coincidence, there’s a pattern here. We’ll see what Microsoft’s response is. Perhaps the February 10th update introduced a bug somehow

Far far as I can tell it's on MS server side, hopefully I can raise it with MS. Below is written by CP under my instructions.

✅ Moderator Notice – Ongoing Microsoft Store Update Issue (Error 0x8000000B)

Posted for visibility to all users experiencing this problem.

We are currently seeing multiple reports of Microsoft Store failing to update with error 0x8000000B (and occasionally 0x80070057) across both Windows 10 and Windows 11. This includes:

Fresh installations of Windows

Systems with no pending Windows Updates

Users who have not modified or customized their devices

Reports from several regions and languages

Identical symptoms appearing within the same 24–48 hour period

Because this issue also occurs on clean installs before any cumulative updates are applied, the evidence strongly suggests this is not a device‑specific problem. Instead, it appears related to the Microsoft Store package or one of its dependency packages currently being delivered from Microsoft’s servers.

This type of issue cannot be resolved through local troubleshooting alone.

Common steps such as:

Resetting the Store

Re‑registering the Store

Running wsreset

Changing region or network

Reinstalling Windows

…will not resolve the problem at this time, as they all rely on the same backend Store package that is currently failing validation.

🔧 About unofficial workarounds

Some users have posted methods involving manually downloading dependency packages from third‑party file hosts and installing them via PowerShell. While these may work temporarily, they are not supported or recommended, as they:

Use files from non‑Microsoft sources

Bypass normal package validation

May cause future Store updates to fail

Are not safe to recommend on Microsoft Q&A

🟦 Current Status

This issue will require a backend fix from Microsoft.

Historically, similar Store‑package issues are corrected silently once the affected package or dependency metadata is republished.

Once corrected, the Store will update normally again without any action required from users.

📌 What you should do

At this time, the best approach is simply to wait for Microsoft to update the Store package on their servers. No local repair steps are needed.

This notice will be updated if additional official information becomes available.

The AI suggested solution doesn't work at all, none of these work.

Answer 2

My temporary solution for those who need to update the Store app and can’t do it. This worked for me, so hopefully it will help someone else.

a) Run PowerShell with administrator privileges and paste this to completely uninstall the Store:

Get-AppxPackage -allusers *WindowsStore* | Remove-AppxPackage

b) Download this file and extract its contents to C:

https://www.mediafire.com/?647d6w3y0cpkg72

c) In C:\Store you will see nine files.

d) Run PowerShell again with administrator privileges and copy and paste each of these nine commands, one by one, in this order. Obviously the numbers should not be copied, I’m just saying. It’s copied from ‘add’ up to the quotes.

1.- Add-AppxPackage -Path "C:\Store\Microsoft.VCLibs.140.00_14.0.33519.0_x64__8wekyb3d8bbwe.Appx"

2.- Add-AppxPackage -Path "C:\Store\Microsoft.VCLibs.140.00.UWPDesktop_14.0.33728.0_x64__8wekyb3d8bbwe.Appx"

3.- Add-AppxPackage -Path "C:\Store\Microsoft.NET.Native.Framework.2.2_2.2.29512.0_x64__8wekyb3d8bbwe.Appx"

4.- Add-AppxPackage -Path "C:\Store\Microsoft.NET.Native.Runtime.2.2_2.2.28604.0_x64__8wekyb3d8bbwe.Appx"

5.- Add-AppxPackage -Path "C:\Store\Microsoft.UI.Xaml.2.4_2.42007.9001.0_x64__8wekyb3d8bbwe.Appx"

6.- Add-AppxPackage -Path "C:\Store\Microsoft.UI.Xaml.2.7_7.2409.9001.0_x64__8wekyb3d8bbwe.Appx"

7.- Add-AppxPackage -Path "C:\Store\Microsoft.UI.Xaml.2.8_8.2310.30001.0_x64__8wekyb3d8bbwe.Appx"

8.- Add-AppxPackage -Path "C:\Store\Microsoft.UI.Xaml.2.8_8.2501.31001.0_x64.appx"

9.- Add-AppxPackage -Path "C:\Store\Microsoft.WindowsStore_22512.1401.7.0_neutral_~_8wekyb3d8bbwe.Msixbundle"

Answer 3

To address the error code 0x8000000b when updating the Microsoft Store, you can try the following troubleshooting steps:

Check Internet Connection: Ensure that your internet connection is stable and working properly.
Restart Microsoft Store: Close the Microsoft Store completely and reopen it to see if the issue persists.
Check Date and Time Settings: Make sure that your date, time, and region settings are correct.
Restart Microsoft Store Install Service:
- Press Windows Key + S and type services.msc.
- Locate the Microsoft Store Install Service.
- If it is running, right-click and select Restart. If it is disabled, set it to Automatic and start the service.
Disable VPN/Antivirus: If you have a third-party VPN or antivirus software, try temporarily disabling it to see if it resolves the issue.
Change Region: Sometimes, changing your region to the United States can help.
Reset Microsoft Store: You can reset the Microsoft Store by going to Settings > Apps > Apps & features, selecting Microsoft Store, and then clicking on Advanced options to reset it.

If these steps do not resolve the issue, consider checking for any recent updates to Windows or contacting Microsoft support for further assistance.
