  1. Microsoft Store and Windows apps not working


    Hi, yesterday I opened Microsoft store to download some updates. It was showing that the apps mail and calender and the store itself was downloading the updates. I closed the store. Then I checked the notifications and I saw that Microsoft Store was stuck on 95 percent and I also noticed that the mail and calendar app was not opening then after few minutes Microsoft store was also not opening. Pls, help. Use this link below to see the screenshot by copy and paste it in your browser:-


    file:///C:/Users/spide/OneDrive/Pictures/Screenshots/2020-09-25.png




    I have already tried the following:-


    1 I have tried running the Microsoft store apps troubleshooter:- The troubleshooter could not identify the problem


    2 I have tried to reset its cache by wsreset:- Nothing happened.


    3 I have also reinstalled windows by removing everything:- After resetting the laptop to its factory settings in which my files were also removed after one day of resetting the laptop this problem showed up again.


    4 I have also tried to re-register the Microsoft store app by using the PowerShell by this command - Get-AppXPackage -AllUsers Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register “$$_.InstallLocationAppXManifest.xml”}


    BUT nothing happened

    5 I also made a new user account and when I logged into the account Microsoft store was not there only.


    6 My time and region are also up to date.





    PLS HELP.

    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 Similarly, app name reservations are also being nullified; which means that if your app is unpublished, there's no guarantee that you'll be able to republish it under the same name.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.
