Windows 10: Trying to figure out how to change username in Microsoft store.

I had the wrong name on my Microsoft account, so I figured out how to change it but when I logged in to Microsoft store it has the old name, and I can't figure out how to change it. Everything that I look up on the internet just shows how to just change Microsoft account and not the store.

Hello Shanti,

We would like to know more so we can help you with regard to the username of your Microsoft account. To provide the appropriate steps, can you tell us the model and OS of the device you are using? Are you getting any error messages when trying to download
applications from the Store?

Since you mentioned that you made a change on your Microsoft account's username, we suggest that you try restarting the device to refresh and then check the username.
