    Microsoft store showing update for an app that's not installed.


    My son installed Roblox on my computer, under my Microsoft account. I uninstalled it. It's annoying enough that I can never remove it from my library now, but even worse, I more have a persistent update for Roblox showing up in my library tab in the store. This shouldn't be. The app isn't even installed. How do I correct this?

    :)

    Microsoft store shows app Installed...not so

    Tried both suggestions as the Troubleshooting step did not fix the issue...Reset Windows Store and now the Appl in the store shows I OWN it...prior it showed it as installed.

    So still cannot re-install the app......

    Unable to update App Installer in Windows 10 Pro Microsoft Store

    Thanks for your reply, I tried all above steps but nothing worked. the strange thing is in Microsoft Store shows that App Installer is installed and an update is available, but during Troubleshooting process It goes through reset app process and opened
    App & features menu but there is no such App Installer app is listed. It looks like App Installer in not even installed in my system but then why Microsoft Store is showing an update for this app?
