Windows 10: Can´t install games on Microsoft store

So i wanted to upgrade my State of Decay 2 to Juggernaut edition. but when i unistalled it i cant install anything from Microsoft store anymore. I tried a lot of methods from youtube or internet but none helped tried through cmd, powershell, and others. I even phoned Microsoft and they did nothing they told me that they will send me email - ofcourse they didnt... When I try to install something nothing will happen or after million clicks on the install button the line will pop up and it will say it is going to start downloading but i waited hours and nothing.

Trying to install games from Microsoft Store on Windows 10

Thanks for the suggestions. I've tried each of these, with no results. I would also like to note that on the Microsoft Store app, in my library, the game is listed, however, no option to install it is given.

 

Install Microsoft Store Game In Specific Folder

Hi,

I understand that you want to organize your Windows 10 storage location. However, the feature you're looking for is currently not possible. We suggest sending feedback to Microsoft using Feedback Hub app. You can visit this
article to know more details about it.

Moreover, you could always choose a preferred location from the Store settings, or move installed content to a different drive. In case you have the OS installed on an SSD and have a dedicated drive for games, the feature will make it more convenient to
download games to a dedicated drive before initiating the download.

You can follow the steps below on how to install Windows Store apps on a separate drive:

1. Open Settings.
   
2. Click on System.
   
3. Click on Storage.
   
4. Under "Save locations," and on "New apps will save to," select the new drive location.

Once you completed the steps, new apps you download from the Windows Store will now install automatically in the new location.

If you need further assistance, don't hesitate to get back to us.

 

Re-Installing the Microsoft Store

Hi Wisedred,



Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



In this scenario we would suggest you to perform these steps to Reinstall and Re-Register all Windows apps for all accounts.

1. Press Windows + X key and select Windows PowerShell (Admin).
   
2. Copy and paste this command, then press enter:
   Get-AppXPackage | Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register "$($_.InstallLocation)\AppXManifest.xml"}
   
3. Close the PowerShell command and restart the PC.
   
4. Open Microsoft Store and install the game.

If the issue persists, then we would suggest you to create a new administrator user account and check if you are able to open Microsoft Store and then install the game, refer this article to
create a local user or administrator account in Windows 10.
