Windows 10: Cant cancel C++ 2012 UWP download Windows 11

For a couple of months now Microsoft Visual C++ 2012 UWP Desktop Runtime has been stuck in the Updates and Downloads library. I am unable to cancel it and it just says “Something happened on our end.” Please help! Its been like this ever since I tried downloading a game from the Xbox app and its made it impossible to update the xbox app or any other app.

Xbox App and Microsoft Store prevents game downloands by requiring Visual C++ 2015 UWP Desktop Runtime Package to download first, but Visual C++ 2015 UWP Desktop Runtime Package will not download

Every time that I go to download a game from the xbox app or microsoft store that is over 1GB, the xbox app/microsoft store first tries to download Visual C++ 2015 UWP Desktop Runtime Package first. The issue is that the microsoft store page for Visual C++ 2015 UWP Desktop Runtime Package appears to be bugged, and I cannot download it. I have tried canceling the downloads and downloading just the package by itself and it does not work. I cannot find the page online to download it manually either. How do I download Visual C++ 2015 UWP Desktop Runtime Package manually, or how do I work around needing it to download larger games. This is a new issue, it was not a problem a month ago.
