Windows 10: Error 0x8A150006 in MS Store

I have Windows 10 and my Store is not working. The download is stuck and sometimes store itself will close immediately after click download in app. No matter what app I choose it will close immediately. I have my MS account sign in to PC and Store so it shouldnt be the issue.

Microsoft Store App Install Error 0x8A150006 | Apps that need User Account Control (admin) approval

I am facing a weird problem where any Microsoft Store app that needs admin previlege/approval (User Account Control), fails to install. Good examples are Adobe Acrobat Reader DC, Audacity, etc. And each app gives a different error code, for instance, Adobe Acrobat Reader DC gives error code 0x8A150006

What I have tried so far (in-vain):

1. wsreset as admin
   
2. Sign-out and sign-in back to store
   
3. Clearing SoftwareDistribution folder
   
4. Ensure related services (such as Microsoft Store Install service, etc.) are running and set to run automatically as seen in services.msc
   
5. Microsoft Store app repair and reset through Settings
   
6. Enough disk space
   
7. Anti-virus and related protections turned off
   
8. DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth (as admin)
   
9. sfc /scannow (as admin)
   
10. Running Windows Update and Windows Store troubleshoot under Settings
    

Note that, apps that do not need privilegs, have no problems and install/run successfully.

So, what could be the issue? Please help.

Microsoft Store version: 22209.1401.10.0

Cant download ms Store aaps_Microsoft Store Error Code: 0x80131500

Hi,

- and is UAC on or had you disabled it?

- do you mean there was an error, or that it completed successfully and didn't help?

Have you changed any permissions e.g. to the Windowsapps folder?

Do you see the same problem, or not?
(If not = an in-place upgrade repair install is not likely to help)


This is a useful diagnostic test, also suggested in the link I quoted.
