Windows 10: Store installed apps never shows

I installed apps in my MS Store it is working with the download and installation process however it will not show in my installed apps. When I checked on store again it shows download / get button in it. It never shows that I already own the app. This is the first time I used this store so I dont know if there is an issue. I have Windows 10 21h1 if that helps.

Windows Store to Pack "Mature" Games and Apps

They announce this right after they said weren't going to carry any of it... Ya think some investors told them to stfu and take money? *Laugh :laugh:

I wonder how long it will be before you can't install noncertified apps? The app store is the 1st stepping stone. Although, you'd have to be an idiot to give 30% to these clowns.
