Windows 10: Microsoft store not installed on my desktop upon purchase, cannot download or open the app?

I recently purchased a new desktop, I was trying to open Paint 3D, and noticed it's not already installed, went to use Microsoft store, and that isn't installed either.So I tried to go directly from the Microsoft site, and nothing happens when I click download? I can't find or download the app, and when I click to open it in settings it says I need a new app to open the ms-windows-store link?Any help would be greatly appreciated, I am very stuck, and very frustrated.

How to run apps that are downloaded from Microsoft app store on multiple PCs without downloading multiple times.

 

Nothing ever downloads and installs on Microsoft Store.

Uninstall third-party firewall and antivirus software.

Completely Uninstall Avast software using aswClear.exe:

1. Download aswClear.exe on to your desktop
2. Start Windows in Safe Mode
3. Open (execute) the uninstall utility
4. If you installed avast! in a different folder than the default, browse for it. (Note: Be careful! The content of any folder you choose will be deleted!)
5. Click REMOVE
6. Restart your computer

Reset Windows Firewall to find out if the problem resolves.


Sometimes you might be able to fix the problem with Windows Store simply by resetting Windows Update services. Open the Command Prompt by typing cmd.exe into Start Menu, right-click on Cmd.exe, and open it as an administrator.

1. When Command Prompt starts, run the following commands:
   • net stop wuauserv
   • net stop bits
   • rename c:\windows\SoftwareDistribution SoftwareDistribution.old
   • net start wuauserv
   • net start bits

After doing that, try to start Windows Store again and check if the problem with Windows Store games is still there.




To reset the Microsoft Store app in Windows 10, do the following.

• Open Settings.
• Go to Apps -> Apps & features.
• On the right side, look for Microsoft Store and click it.
• The advanced options link will appear. Click it.

Unable to complete a download from microsoft app store (purchased app)

Hello, I purchased an app from the Microsoft app store but after a couple of megabytes the download is interrupted with the error 0x80246007 (the good old minecraft for windows, nothing too fancy).

All the other apps are downloading just fine from the store, and one can uninstall and reinstall as regular. It only affects one very app of yours.

please note that

- Windows Update is updated and has no pending items nor errors.

- sfc scannow is of no help at all

- windows troubleshooter does not find any issues with the store or with the windows update

- WSReset had no effect

- I have no antivirus nor firewall installed

- I am not behind a corporate proxy or firewalls

Can anyone suggest me how to download this app which I paid for but it is not being delivered?

Any suggestion which is not part of the list above is appreciated.
