Windows 10: Cannot play windows store games due to permanent 0% sync bug

Earlier today i was playing an out of date Gears 4 with my friend on pc via the windows store, managed to get on the game just fine, of course i couldn't join him due to a version mismatch so i update my Gears 4. Logged in fine, joined his lobby, tried to play campaign co-op and got booted. I found a fix online that seemed to have made my NAT type open. I relog into the game for the third time to find that I simply cannot play the game anymore, this screen refuses to go away and even if i close it i just get an infinite loading screen without the sync message box. I have tried many, many, many fixes including reverting the changes i made with my NAT type before this bug happened but nothing has changed. I tested this on state of decay 2 to see if the problem was unique to Gears 4 but it's not, this applies to all my windows store games, essentially rendering them useless.

I tried all of these options with no results

1. If you are able to open MS Store, open MS Store > Click on your profile picture on top right and sign-out. Then sign-in again.

2. Run Windows Store Apps Troubleshooter
Windows Key+X > Click Settings > Click Update & security > Click Troubleshoot > Scroll down to the bottom > Click Windows Store Apps > Click Run the Troubleshooter

3. Reset Windows Store through Command Prompt
Type cmd in Windows Search box > Right click on Command Prompt > Run As Administrator > Type WSreset.exe and click Enter > Reboot your computer

4. Re-register All Store apps (You will get many Reds, ignore them)
Windows Key+X > Windows Powershell (Admin) > Copy the following from below and right click in Powershell to paste > Enter > Restart your computer

Get-AppXPackage -AllUsers | Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register "$($_.InstallLocation)\AppXManifest.xml"}

5. Uninstall & Reinstall Store
Windows Key+X > Windows Powershell (Admin) > Copy the following from below and right click in Powershell to paste > Enter

Get-AppxPackage -allusers *WindowsStore* | Remove-AppxPackage

Copy the following from below and right click in Powershell to paste > Enter > Reboot your computer

Get-AppxPackage -allusers *WindowsStore* | Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register “$($_.InstallLocation)\AppXManifest.xml”}


6. Check your Antivirus
Temporarily uninstall / disable AV. Enable after troubleshooting.

I need fixes folks, i'm running out of patience here, I didn't pay for these games to not be able to play them.
