Windows 10: Can't connect to Microsoft Services like Word, Windows Store, and Outlook or sign into...

I'm running Windows 10 on a 64 bit system.When trying to sign in via Word or other Office apps I get "Sorry, we are having some temporary service issues" or "We are unable to connect right now. Please check you network and try again later." I also get error Code: 0x80131500 CV: 5lauQgHAE0SkPc/j on the Windows Store when trying to launch. I can't even upgrade to Windows 11 because my pc "can't connect to the update service."This thread summarize most of what I've already tried: https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/all/microsoft-store-error-code-0x80131500/41d2d363-83ee-4b5d-ba43-6

How to install outlook express on windows xp with explorer 8?

This is an awkward problem to solve and one I don't think is worth the time and effort.

The OP would be better off either using a modern webmail service like gmail or outlook.com or using a modern email client like Windows Live Mail like FX-GMC suggested or Thunderbird from Mozilla. If nothing else, Outlook Distress was notorious for corrupting its data files and losing all your email in one easy step. Not worth it.

 

Unable to install Garmin Connect Mobile app from Microsoft Store

Hi James,



Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



I understand that you are unable to install the Garmin Connect Mobile app from Microsoft store after uninstalling it.



I suggest you to follow the steps mentioned below and check if that helps.



Method 1:



Reset the store cache.

1. Press Windows key + R. This will open
   Run. Alternatively, you can go to Start and search for Run.
   
2. In Run dialog box, type
   wsreset and hit enter.
   

The store will restart automatically after the command completes.



Method 2:



Sign out and sign in again to store.

1. Open Microsoft store by clicking on the
   Store icon on the taskbar.
   
2. Now on the top right corner click on the
   account icon and click on the account name.
   
3. Now click on Sign out to sign out of Microsoft Store.
   
4. Click on the account icon again and click on
   Sign in.
   
5. Login with the Microsoft account.
   

If the issue persists, I would also suggest you to check and confirm if the store app is updated and the region, time & language settings are set accordingly. You can refer the steps in the article on
Microsoft Store does not launch
to help you through this process.



Hope it helps.

outlook opens word?

If you use a version of Outlook prior to v. 2007, there's a checkbox in one of the preferences tabs which controls this. You can choose Word or Outlook Editor.

V. 2007 no longer includes Outlook Editor, though. It has it's own 'light' verson of Word 2007 built in.
