Windows 10: trying to download games on microsoft

I'm confused about why Microsoft says, "It looks like you don’t have any applicable devices linked to your Microsoft account. To install, sign in on a device with your Microsoft account." when I'm signed in with my Microsoft account in my settings on my pc. Even on my account details on Microsoft, it shows my pc.
