Windows 10: Microsoft Store issue + an suggestion

So I had an issue with the Microsoft store not opening, it opens but it gives an error code every time I launched it, from a previous discussion I made, I chose the last option, wiping the drive and reinstalling windows and guess what!.... It did not work, Idk how though. Also a suggestion, for the users that can't access the Microsoft store, maybe make a way of still installing apps without the store. The error code is 0x80131500. The device is an HP Envy x360 m6 Energy Star with an AMD FX 7th Gen Special edition.P.S. I had the same issue in Windows 10
