  1. Can’t update the Microsoft store


    Hello. I am unable to update the Microsoft Store to download Minecraft. The error the Microsoft Store gives me is: “Microsoft Store couldn’t update. Something happens we couldn’t complete the updates. The error code is 0x80070002, in case you need it.”. It gives me the option to Skip for now and try again. When I press try again the same error comes up. When I press skip for now and click the install button on the Minecraft Launcher it says: “Try again later. Something happened on our end.”. Can someone please help me here I’m not too sure on what to do.

    :)
