    hey @ok ok

    Reset Microsoft store from the settings app

    1. Navigate to Settings > Apps > Apps & features
    2. Locate the Microsoft Store entry and click on it
    3. Click Advanced options
    4. Under Reset, click the Reset button.

    This should reinstall the Store with default values.

    Reinstall Microsoft Store

    Press Windows + X keyboard shortcut and select PowerShell (admin)
    Copy-paste or type in the following command in the command line and press Enter:

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

    Once the process ‘reinstalls’ Microsoft Store, restart your PC.
    Check the Microsoft store working properly.
