  1. App not showing when it says installed MS Store


    I am trying to download OBS Studio for a setup for my YouTube so I can record videos, but when I install OBS, it says, "Installed" and below it, it says that I need to check my start menu, but it isn't there when I check the "O" section and every time I close MS Store and then re-open it, it makes me re-download it.

    How to uninstall an app the MS store says is installed but is not installed?

    Hi. I had a game app installed from the MS store called "Warzone 2011" that worked wonderfully until I downloaded and installed the Windows 11 upgrade a couple days ago. After installation, I noticed there was no shortcut icon for the game, to play the game.

    So, I went back to the MS store to download the game again, thinking the update must have deleted it, but the store said the game was owned and installed already. I looked at the installed list of apps on the computer but the game app was not listed as being installed.

    So, I searched the computer for the Warzone files, and found the file in the oldWindows file. I deleted the game app file, but that did not work because the MS store still says the game is installed. But again, it is not listed in the app list of installed apps on the computer.

    I have searched my computer for more Warzone files and could not find any more.

    So, how do I uninstall an app that is not installed in my computer?

    Thanks for your help!
     
  3. Remove non-operable App downloaded from MS App Store, to remove Already Own

    Remove App downloaded from Microsoft Store App Store because:

    I mistakenly downloaded on PC (MS Surface). When I try to install the app on my phone, it says - already owned. But I cannot get access to, or install it, on the phone. I have tried all steps as suggested in link below.

    Redirecting

    I can hide the app in my account library on the pc but to no affect on the phone.

    The app does not appear on either the PC Application list (in Settings), nor in the phone list of Apps.

    I want to install the app on my phone.

    Microsoft store shows app Installed...not so

    Tried both suggestions as the Troubleshooting step did not fix the issue...Reset Windows Store and now the Appl in the store shows I OWN it...prior it showed it as installed.

    So still cannot re-install the app......
