Windows 10: microsoft apps not connected to internet but yet here I am posting from the same computer...

I am having a problem with Microsoft apps, Microsoft Store AND when trying to use Sign in with a Microsoft account instead with Windows 10. It will either not open the login screen to enter the credentials screen just keeps spinning with the blue circle with just a moment appearing OR when opening the app it just says that I am not connected. Version # of Windows 10 is 1909. Please don't give me the try to reset the microsoft store or app as I have tried that. Don't ask to delete & reinstall. I can't install anything since I can not sign into Microsoft store to download apps. I just want to be able to sign into Microsoft so that I can download and play online games. What do I need to do. From previous searching this appears to be a long running issue. Why has this not been fixed? Thank you in advance for any help that you or anyone can give to resolve this issue.

Connecting computer with no internet connection to network printer

1. Open Admin command and type: ipconfig
   
   
   
2. Win+X->Control Panel->Netwok and Sharing Center
   Follow the screen shot. This should disable internet access from this PC but allows access to local device(s)
   NOTE: Use the IP & Subnet Mask from step 1. Leave Default gateway & DNS Server blank
