Windows 10: Microsoft Store not opening on Windows 10

I am attempting to open the Microsoft Store, but the window simply flashes open and closes. I've followed all of the official support steps, but nothing is helping. I have also tried other unofficial fixes. The live chat is sending me to the unhelpful support article, and once I finally got a person they were from billing support even though I selected technical support. I am extremely frustrated with the lack of an easy way to contact a human with actual technical support knowledge. Why can't I just email support? This seems like a simple issue that can be fixed with a few simple commands or registry edits, but the awful support is making this impossible. Oh yeah, the Get Help and Feedback Hub apps aren't working either.

Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

• Open a new Explorer window.
• Click View in the ribbon.
• Click Options.
• Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
• Click OK

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.”
