  1. The Microsoft Store says I'm not connected to the Internet


    Hey, I have a problem in the microsoft store that says I'm not connected to the internet. I am trying to download a game on my PC, but when I click the "Get" button, an icon appears saying, "You will need the Internet for this" and it has the error code 0x800704cf. I'm not sure what this means or how to fix it. This applies to all games and apps on the store as I tested various apps and games to see if they had the same results.

    :)

    Network Settings says No Internet Connection, But...


    I've tried unselecting the option but I didn't fix the issue - nor could I see why it would.

    The following things connect to the internet fine:
    • Microsoft Edge (new IE)
    • Chrome
    • Skype
    • Steam's browser and Steam multiplayer games
    • League of Legends launcher, patcher, PVP.net and game client
    • Battle.net
    • Pretty much everything
    What doesn't work:

    • Network Center (says I'm not connected)
    • Windows Live Mail (logging in)
    • Outlook (logging in)
    • Notepad 8 (logging in)
    • User Accounts (logging in)
    The issue seems to affect any Microsoft product that tries to connect to Live.

    Microsoft Store says i'm not connected to the internet but I am connected to the internet

    Hi Shaian,

    Your Windows Store showing you don't have an internet connection might be due to a variety of reasons. One of which is due to corrupted Store files.

    Does your PC tell you as well that you don't have an internet connection or just the Store app?

    When did this start to happen? What were the recent changes made before this occurred?

    What Windows 10 build and version are you currently on? You may check it by following these steps:

    • Press the Windows + R keys from the keyboard to launch the
      Run dialog window.
    • Type winver, then press the Enter key. You may then see the Windows 10 version and build you're in.

    We'll be waiting for your response.

    Regards.
