Windows 10: Can't install anything on microsoft store

I'm unable to install anything on mincrosoft store, for example, when I press install on minecraft launcher, nothing happens. When I try to install something else, it gives me this message: "Try the download again, something happened on our end". I'm very confused and I don't know how to fix this. Even downloading on xbox doesn't work. Any help is appreciated

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
