  1. Can only access Microsoft store when connected to VPN


    I can only access Microsoft store when connected via Forticlient used as a VPN. If I disonnect from VPN I can no longer connect to the store. Can have an explanation?

    No access to Windows Store when connected to VPN

    I have seen quite few posts here and there about it as well. I was hoping you guys on this forum might posses some more knowledge about this issue.

    Anyway, VPN I use is self hosted one on VPS. Of course, suggested method "don't use VPN" works but then it undermines whole sense of using VPN.

    I forgot to mention in my first post, that once "connection" with Windows Store is established without active VPN connection, I can turn on VPN and download apps as usual. Once OS is rebooted Microsoft Store serves the same error again.

    I will try to send feedback if this is the only way to get it sorted.

    Vpn ( trusted Vpn)

    Hi everyone.
    I am not an expert about Vpn and that's why I would like to know if someone could list me a few trusted Vpns, I would really appreciate any suggestion/ advice.

    Thanks.

    Can only access Microsoft store when connected to VPN

    No access to Windows Store when connected to VPN

    Hello all,

    I use VPN on Windows 10 Home edition when I connect to internet.

    This, however, stops me from downloading anything from Windows Store. Same thing happens when I tried to use Photos and Mail apps. I have to turn off VPN so I can download anything.

    Error displayed is as in the screenshot.


    Is there any solution for this?
