  1. Apps wont install from downloads folder


    Hello guys,

    i have some strange bug on my windows 10 20H2 version. When i download any app from internet and when i try to install them when they are in downloads folder, i get an error that app wont install BUT when i move that installation to any other folder and any other disk, app install normally like nothing happened. I searched on internet for this bug but i found nothing. Can anyone help me to solve this issue? Im annoyed moving app to other folders anytime i want to install something.

    Thanks in advance

    Insurgency wont install and run for me....

    I have played and have fully updated CS and Half life 2....
    I am using the newest client and installed the SDK.

    I am completely blown away, if i click the desktop icon it starts the sdk and then closes, and it doesn't show up in my game list...

    First mod attempt install here, followed the directions step by step on the mods website...

    Any ideas?

    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.
