  1. Can't install media feature pack


    So I've been trying a while now to get microsoft store apps to work and have come to the conclusion that the issue is the media feature pack. I am using windows 10 pro N and have to download this seperately.


    My problem is, whenever I try to download this, I am prompted to reboot where I am given an infinite loading black screen once I do so.


    To get out of this, I have to power it off and back on, which causes the download to fail.


    A while ago, I recall someone telling me to uninstall the media pack through commands to fix a different problem, and i did, which i fear may be the problem.


    Thanks in advance.

    :)

    Problem with Media Feature Pack.

    When I follow these steps Media Features are not listed, despite having downloaded and installed the Windows Media Feature Pack! Please help! Can't install GTA: V! Aaaargh!

    Installing Windows Media Feature Pack...

    OS: Windows 10 Pro N, 64-bit, version 20H2 (OS Build 19042.685)

    The Windows Media Feature Pack includes Windows Media Player (WMP) as an optional app, since Windows 10 version 2004 I believe. As such, installing the semi-annual updates removes the previous version of WMP and the updated version is not installed by default.

    Installing WMP seems simple enough, via "Settings\Apps and Features\Optional features\Add a feature", except when it is not. After trying to add Media Feature Pack feature, it display a blank list:

    The image above should have a list of available apps in alphabetical order, but it's blank. Searching for the apps in the empty list obviously results in nothing found.

    The system in question has local accounts only, no MS account, has internet access and receives MS and other software updates without any issues.

    Does anyone have an idea as to why the optional feature list is empty? I am lost for the reason...

    TIA...

    Media feature pack

    HI,

    It could be due to a corrupted installation for Groove or the media pack.

    I would suggest you uninstall & reinstall both or perform the following troubleshooting steps listed in this microsoft support article.
