    Microsoft Store won't download or update Games and Apps


    Hello,


    I recently received a 3 Month Game Pass Access from Discord Nitro and decided to install No Man's Sky as a test. Well, at first it started, downloaded about 4GB and then didn't continue. I stopped the download, tried restarting the download, but then nothing happened after I chose the install destination I chose D: Drive because it has the most free space on my PC. Since then I couldn't install anything anymore.


    I then looked up if this was a common problem, followed all the instructions I could find using Powershell, using the CMD prompt, stopping and resetting the Store, restarting my PC, etc. yet still nothing happened. The last instruction I could find was that I need to install updates for already-installed apps, but I can't even update them because it just keeps loading.

    I also tried installing the game again, but it just doesn't do anything.


    Any help is appreciated!

    :)

    Store Settings "Update apps automatically" won`t stay switched off. WHY?

    Hi H. G.,

    The possible reason why Update apps automatically turn back on is that the Store app is running in the background. We suggest that you turn off the Store app. This way, it won't receive any updates or send notifications unless opened or turned on
    manually.

    To turn off Store app, follow these steps:

    • Click the Windows logo, then go to Settings.
    • Click Privacy, then Background apps.
    • On the list, locate Store and toggle it off.

    Let us know how it goes so we can further assist you.

    Regards.
