Windows 10: I can't download and install any apps from Windows Store on Windows 11, x64

The problem started when I realized I couldn't start the Xbox app on Windows 11 x64. I tried repairing and resetting, but that didn't work. Then when I tried to uninstall and reinstall, I couldn't download the app from the Windows Store.I've followed a number of suggestions but none seem to work so far - the most recent suggestion was to download the Gaming Services app from the Windows Store, and I ran into a similar problem where that won't install as well.Not sure if it's related, but I'm on a FAST compute, and the Windows Store always takes a long time to load...Back to the INITIAL issue o

Windows 7 x64 not detecting GTX295

Background
I installed the 295 and it was not detected. So I downloaded 181.22 for Vista x64, but those drivers didn't work for gaming (CTD). So I installed a GTX 8800 and it was detected and drivers installed automatically from Windows Update.

Now I put the 295 back in, and it installed and was able to run games. However, the nVidia control panel was not available, suggesting that the drivers hadn't installed properly... So I deleted the drivers and rebooted. And... again it lists my 295 as a "Standard VGA Graphics Adapter" and a "3D Video Controler", but no drivers can be found by Windows Update.

Question
1) Is there anywhere I can download the Windows 7 x64 drivers and install them manually?

2) Any idea how I can get Windows 7 to recognize my GTX295 so that it can download the proper drivers.

3) Have you had the GTX295 install automatically in Windows 7 x64?

Windows 8 Gets "Overwhelmingly Negative" Response from Vendors, Expectations Plummet

Apps listed in the Store need to be approved by MS, otherwise you can download/install apps the same as you did on Windows 7. All "Metro" apps though must be installed by using the Store, afaik anyways.
