    Cannot install any apps from windows store


    Already tried the UAC
    Store is in the list so I didn't restore defaults Figured it might muck up too many other things?
    Network troubleshooter didn't come up with anything!

  5. I can't think of anything else.

    lx07 already suggested a Repair install, that's all I can think of

    Read through the tutorial and ask any questions
    Repair Install Windows 10 with an In-place Upgrade - Windows 10 Forums

    I suggest
    Step 4 : To do a repair install of Windows 10 with an ISO file
    -- OR --
    Step 5 : To do a repair install of Windows 10 with USB installation media

    Another member might suggest something else - you can read while you wait *Wink

    Cannot install any apps from windows store

    I had similar problems and for a while, I turned firewall off when trying to install APPs from store. Somehow it got fixed itself after an update.

  9. After months of every other "solution" out there, of course it would be the obvious. I turned off firewall completely and at least I can install and update. But once firewall is turned on again, it's back to "Something happened on our end." So no update that I could download fixed this issue without this fix for this issue.

    And I can't seem to find the rule in firewall that is exactly blocking the install/download call. Other updates with the MS Store and the individuals apps will refresh like the storefront inventories etc. But not the actual apps or their updates themselves. Because if this is the ultimate fix to this nonsense, finding out exactly what the impeding firewall rule is will save others a lot of aggravation. Turning off a firewall completely is not a secure workaround.

    The store app is being updated which seems to cure it assuming you can download it
