Another problem is that every single app or even a picture I download is also on my OneDrive and when I delete it from it, it also delete it from my computer. Can anybody help me fix it?

Downloading on the microsoft sotre

Hi Angus. I'm Greg, an installation specialist, 10 year Windows MVP, and Volunteer Guardian Moderator here to help you.

There's a known issue right now with Game Pass installs with fixes here:

I'll give you everything possible to repair the store. Even if you've tried a step please do it over in this sequence. If any steps cannot be performed then report it and move on to the next:

1) Try updating Store apps:
https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/402625...

2) Make sure you have the latest Windows 10 version 1903 in Settings > System > About and if not skip to Step 10 to install it by the most stable method.

3) See if the fixes here help:
https://www.pcworld.com/article/3053099/windows...

4) Try running the Windows Store apps Troubleshooter at Settings > Update & Security > Troubleshoot.

5) Try resetting the Store cache:
http://www.thewindowsclub.com/reset-windows-sto...

6) If that fails go to Settings>Apps and highlight Microsoft Store, choose Advanced Settings, then Reset. After it resets, restart PC.

7) If that fails then reinstall Store. Type CMD in Start Search, right click Command Prompt result to Run as Administrator, copy the following code and paste it into the box using the Edit tools from Box's top left dropdown menu, press Enter:

PowerShell -ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted -Command "& {$manifest = (Get-AppxPackage *WindowsStore*).InstallLocation + '\AppxManifest.xml' ; Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register $manifest}"

8) Clear the LocalCache Folder: Open Run by pressing the Windows key + R hotkey.

Copy and paste %localappdata% in Run and click OK.

Open Packages> Microsoft.WindowsStore_8wekyb3d8bbwe > LocalCache folder.

Press the Ctrl + A hotkey to select all content within the LocalCache folder.

Press the Delete button.

9) If these all fail then go over this checklist to make sure the install is set up correctly, optimized for best performance, and any needed repairs get done:

Start with Step 4 to turn off Startup freeloaders which can conflict and cause issues, then Step 7 to check for infection the most thorough way, then step 10 to check for damaged System Files, and also Step 16 to test a new Local Admin account because of the
serious and persistent problem with corrupted accounts. Then continue with the other steps to go over your install most thoroughly.

10) If nothing else works then do a Repair Install, by installing Media Creation Tool and then choosing to Upgrade Now. This reinstalls Windows while keeping files, programs and most settings in place, and is also the most stable method to advance to the latest
version.

Microsoft Edge TLS Security

After trying everything (not a lot of steps) listed in the Microsoft Edge support site, I did a wider search and found this very simple youtube video that fixed it immediately:

For those who prefer not to click links the steps are simple:

1. Click in the Cortana search bar next to the Win 10 Start button

2. Type internet options

3. Select internet options (control panel) from the list

4. Click on the advanced tab

5. Scroll down to the security section

6. Make sure the following are all clicked:
Use SSL 3.0
Use TLS 1.0
Use TLS 1.1
Use TLS 1.2

7. Click apply

8. Refresh the page that was giving the error and it should now connect.

Hope this helps, it was a 30 second fix after hours of pounding my head against the error with the Support site suggestions.
