    I cannot install apps or update applications


    This has been a consistent problem with windows for the past couple months and i didn't pay very much attention to it because i didnt have use for the store until now. I've tried every resolution you could think of WSreset, Resetting the application itself, reinstalling through powershell. What is the fix to this? The installation button just disappears when i try to click it in owned applications and it then loads onto the applications main store page and the install button is gray with a circle with a line through it not allowing me to click.

    :)

    Insurgency wont install and run for me....

    I have played and have fully updated CS and Half life 2....
    I am using the newest client and installed the SDK.

    I am completely blown away, if i click the desktop icon it starts the sdk and then closes, and it doesn't show up in my game list...

    First mod attempt install here, followed the directions step by step on the mods website...

    Any ideas?

    Windows Updated(16299.309).KB4088776 Restart is required to complete.

    Hi dalchina. Good news, I followed your suggestion and reinstalled the update and now it appears as "installed correctly" *Biggrin Maybe it was not necessary to run the Windows Update Troubleshooter or maybe if necessary. But using it I do not think it could have worsened something. The installation was very fast, unlike the first time it showed step 1 and step 2 completed.

    Thanks for the suggestions and for the time to respond I cannot install apps or update applications :) Best regards.


    And thanks for the tip of that program, I'll have it on my list.

  4. I cannot install apps or update applications

    Apps not installing on Windows 10

    Hi Nicole,

    Welcome to Microsoft Community.

    I understand your concern. Let me help you to fix the issue.

    To assist you better, please provide us more information.


    • Which Windows 10 build is installed on your system?

    • Which app are you trying to install?

    • What is the complete error code do you received?
    • Is this issue specific to a app or all the apps?
    Let’s try simple steps troubleshooting steps and check if this helps in resolving the issue. Follow the below methods.

    Method 1.

    At first, I suggest you to check if any Windows update is pending. (If yes, install all the Windows update).


    • Type update on the Windows search bar and select Check for updates.
    • Now click on Check for updates button, it will automatically detect the Windows update if pending.
    Method 2.

    I suggest you to run Windows app troubleshooter, this tool can automatically identify and fix some problems with apps and the Store. Visit the below link to run app troubleshooter.

    http://download.microsoft.com/download/F/2/4/F24D0C03-4181-4E5B-A23B-5C3A6B5974E3/apps.diagcab

    Also, I suggest to update the Windows store manually.


    • Open Windows store, click on your account on top right corner.
    • Select Download & updates and click on Check for Updates.
    Hope this helps. Let us know the result.
