  2. Re-Installing the Microsoft Store

    Hi Wisedred,



    Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



    In this scenario we would suggest you to perform these steps to Reinstall and Re-Register all Windows apps for all accounts.



    1. Press Windows + X key and select Windows PowerShell (Admin).
    2. Copy and paste this command, then press enter:
      Get-AppXPackage | Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register "$($_.InstallLocation)\AppXManifest.xml"}
    3. Close the PowerShell command and restart the PC.
    4. Open Microsoft Store and install the game.


    If the issue persists, then we would suggest you to create a new administrator user account and check if you are able to open Microsoft Store and then install the game, refer this article to
    create a local user or administrator account in Windows 10.
