Windows 10: Microsoft Store is down for some users on Windows 10 and Xbox

Many Windows 10 and Xbox One users are reporting that the Microsoft Store is down in some regions. Users have to deal with a pretty annoying Microsoft Store problems on Thursday morning that made the app store almost non-functional for some of those affected.

Users, who documented the bug, are seeing an error message when opening apps listing or performing a search in the Microsoft Store.

“Something happened on our end. Waiting a bit might help,” the Microsoft Store error message reads. Refreshing the page returns the same result and clearing cache of the app store is not helping either.

We were able to reproduce the bug and the app store is also not working on our devices at the time of writing this story. Some users have confirmed the problem on Twitter and as well as Reddit, but there’s is no acknowledgement from Microsoft yet.

“So even though I am signed in on Windows with my Microsoft Account – I am physically unable to log in to the Xbox App or the Microsoft Store with the same account?! Resetting the Microsoft Store did not fix,” a user tweeted.

@XboxSupport Please explain to me why my Xbox One S is running like a snail and i can not connect to the Microsoft Store…

Windows 10 Tweaks

As you may already know, Windows 10 (as well as Windows 8) allow you to log in with a valid Microsoft account, instead of creating a local account that only works on your machine. However, you may prefer to keep a local account for privacy reasons. If you do, though, some Windows 10 features—like Cortana—may not work. Despite the default behavior, the Windows 10 Store is not one of them. You can still log in to your Microsoft account for just the Store without switching to a full Microsoft account. The process, however, is not terribly obvious. To do so, follow these steps:

• Launch the Store from your Start menu.
• Click the user icon next to the search box.
• Click “Sign-in” from the menu that appears.
• Choose “Microsoft account” and log in like normal.
• When the “Make it yours” box appears do not enter your password. Instead, click “Sign in to just this app instead.”
