Windows 10: I both can't install apps from the Microsoft Store, and can't connect to the Windows Update...

At first, I wanted to update my Minecraft Windows 10 Edition to the new beta that just released, but it wouldn't let me. So, I decided to uninstall and reinstall the game. (Big mistake) I tried installing it again, and I kept getting this error code: 0x80072F8F. After looking at some forum answers to this problem, I tried resetting my PC, didn't work. Disabling and re-enabling all services, didn't work. I checked if Windows needed to update, but it kept giving me an error there as well, saying: "We couldn't connect to the update service. We'll try again later, or you can check now. If it still doesn't work, make sure you're connected to the internet." I made sure my internet is working, and it's fine. I also made sure my time is set correctly, it's correct. I tried troubleshooting, and it hasn't found any issues. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Microsoft is purging a lot of low quality apps from the Windows Store

"Microsoft is sending emails to some Windows Store developers informing them that their apps have been removed from the Store for violating its quality standards."

"Neowin reports that app developers have been receiving these emails over the past couple of days:

In its latest review of the Store, Microsoft is evaluating if the published apps are good enough to be listed in the Windows Store. This includes publicly available apps as well as private beta apps. Additionally, Microsoft is also asking developers to delete any promotional campaigns for their apps to prevent advertising charges. Similarly, app name reservations are also being nullified; which means that if your app is unpublished, there's no guarantee that you'll be able to republish it under the same name.

Officially, the policies for the Microsoft Store says that apps must have "distinct and informative metadata" and "provide a valuable and quality user experience". There are also some specific standards that must be in the apps, including having a name that is not similar to another app or device, along with offering a description that is accurate about its features and functions.

There have certainly been many Windows Store users who have complained over the years about the large number of apps published that are clones of other apps or ones that are simply poorly made. Hopefully, this new move by Microsoft will help to curb these issues, at least for now."
