  1. Apps/games stop downloading when tabbing out of Windows store.


    Hey all,

    I hope this is a simple one and is just me being a daft bugger, but when trying to downlaod something via the windows 10 store, if I tab out or switch to my primory moniter to leave me game on to download in the background, within a few seconds it'll throw back an error, no error code or anything it just stops downloading.

    I can resume to download and it'll pick up where it left off, but the second I go back to doing anything else on my primery moniter it stops downloading again.

    Is this a bug? Or just something daft I'm doing wrong?

    EDIT:

    Error code : Code: 0x8024001E

    Thanks!

  2. Windows 10 Apps from the store wont download

    Hi Sumon,

    Sorry for the delay in response.

    • Do you face this issue only with these apps?
    • Did you try downloading other apps?
    • Did you try stopping these apps and then downloading it again?
    We would suggest you to try the steps mentioned in the link

    • Type troubleshooting in the search
      box
      and hit Enter.
    • Click View all from the left pane and select Windows store apps.
    • Follow the on-screen instructions and check.
    If the steps don't work try these steps:

    Try to reset the Windows store and check.
    • Press Win + R on the keyboard to open run Window.
    • Type wsreset.exe to reset the Windows store cache.
    Hope this information helps.
