Windows 10: games not in my "ACCOUNT"

Cortina found this problem for me and there were 247 "me too" entries. The last post was in July 2017. Today is February, 2019 and I'm having this problem with my apps from the MS Store. So it seems that 1 1/2 years have passed and Microsoft has yet to correct the problem. There have been at least two updates and the fix for this problem has not been done.


Does anyone from Microsoft read these postings? I can't understand why this has not been corrected.
