Hi,



Thank you for posting on Microsoft Community. We will help you in resolving your issue.



Before assisting further, I would like to ask you few questions regarding the query:

• Are you logging in using Microsoft Account credentials?

Step 1: You will be able to buy apps and other products from Windows Store if you are logging in using
Microsoft Account.



I suggest you to login using your Microsoft account credentials and check if you are able to buy the products from Windows Store.



If you do not have a Microsoft account, sign up and create a Microsoft account from the link below and check if you are able to download the apps from the Windows Store.

Step 2: If the issue persist, I suggest you to run the
apps troubleshooter included within Windows OS manually by following the steps below and check if the issue persist.



In many cases, the Windows Store will automatically notify you if there’s a problem with an app and try to fix the problem. If you continue experiencing problems with an app, this tool can automatically identify and fix some problems with apps and the Store.

• Type troubleshooting in the search box next to
  Start icon and select the top most search result.
• Click on View All from the left hand screen panel.
• Select Windows Store apps, click on
  Advanced option and check Apply repairs automatically
  option.
• Follow the on screen instructions.
