Windows 10: Microsoft Store Wont Open

Hey, my windows store won't open. When I click it, it shows the main screen (Blue with store logo) then it just crashes, no error report, nothing. I'm suspecting it was because of VPNs I have previously downloaded, but after deleting them all it still doesn't work. (Other Windows programs also don't launch)

:)

Microsoft Store wont open

Hi Bryan,

Let's verify if the Windows Store Service is enabled on your computer as this could be one of the reasons why it won't start. To check, follow the steps below:

• In the Search window, type in Services.
• When Services (Desktop app) appears, click it.
• Locate Windows Store Service, right-click it, then click Properties.
• Under Startup type, click Start if it shows Stopped.

Once done, try opening the Windows Store again. If it still won't open, then double check if you are logged in on your computer using your Microsoft account.

Let us know if you need further help.

Regards.
