  1. Trouble downloading updates and apps from windows store.


    Hey! I'm having trouble downloading any updates from Windows Update and downloading or updating apps from Windows Store (error 0x80244018). I read that this is a common issue with some last updates but I can't seem to find the right solution, here's what I tried so far:

    • Creating "AUInstallAgent" and "AppReadiness" folders on C:\Windows, which did seem to fix the problem but then the updates got stuck again, even after restarting.
    • Searching malware. No results.
    • Removing the update that caused the problem. This only put more failed updates on queue.
    • Something with a proxy (I don't really understand much) on Internet Explorer. The site with this advice said that I had to enable the "Automatic detect settings" option on LAN settings and then uncheck the "Use a proxy server for your LAN". The settings were exactly like that by default so I just double checked (and un-checked) everything and restarted: it didn't work. The website then said that, in case the previous steps didn't work, I should set up the proxy on Windows (or something like that, I'm not sure how to translate it). This involves writing some commands on the Windows Command Prompt.
      • I didn't do the last thing because I don't really understand what I'm doing with the proxy, I can work my way around the Command Prompt but I don't know which IP address and port number to use.

    I tried with some posts on this subreddit but none of them really helped except one where someone said it was a proxy problem which made me think maybe it was the last thing I didn't try but I don't want to do something I'll regret.

    If someone has some tips or could help me I'd be very very greatful.

    I'm sorry my english isn't perfect, hopefully you'll understand. Thanks in advance!
