Windows 10: Unable to connect with microsoft apps.

Hello.


I am able to connect to the internet and even to this website with ease. Speed checks of internet speed, ping, up, and down are good or better. However, Cortana, Feedback Hub, changing user to sign in with microsoft account, microsoft store, and any other program that tries to connect to my microsoft account fails with a 0x81090001 error or an unable to access internet message. The internet troubleshooter finds no problems. Nor does the windows update troubleshooter. Windows update finds a number of updates that are pending download, but never downloads them.


Is there a way to reset the connection parameters to the microsoft account? Would that solve the problem?


Truly,

Gary Rosys

Unable to install Garmin Connect Mobile app from Microsoft Store

Hi James,



Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



I understand that you are unable to install the Garmin Connect Mobile app from Microsoft store after uninstalling it.



I suggest you to follow the steps mentioned below and check if that helps.



Method 1:



Reset the store cache.

1. Press Windows key + R. This will open
   Run. Alternatively, you can go to Start and search for Run.
   
2. In Run dialog box, type
   wsreset and hit enter.
   

The store will restart automatically after the command completes.



Method 2:



Sign out and sign in again to store.

1. Open Microsoft store by clicking on the
   Store icon on the taskbar.
   
2. Now on the top right corner click on the
   account icon and click on the account name.
   
3. Now click on Sign out to sign out of Microsoft Store.
   
4. Click on the account icon again and click on
   Sign in.
   
5. Login with the Microsoft account.
   

If the issue persists, I would also suggest you to check and confirm if the store app is updated and the region, time & language settings are set accordingly. You can refer the steps in the article on
Microsoft Store does not launch
to help you through this process.



Hope it helps.

Unable to connect your Phone app with PC

Hi,



Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



I understand that you are facing issues while using phone app on your PC. I appreciate your time and effort in trying to resolve the issue. I would like to know, have you tried connecting the devices on the same subnet?



As you have already tried resetting the app many times, I would suggest you to uninstall and re-install the app and check if that helps. Follow the steps mentioned below to uninstall the Your Phone app.

1. Press Windows + X key and select Windows PowerShell (Admin).
2. Now type in the command: Get-AppxPackage Microsoft.YourPhone -AllUsers | Remove-AppxPackage
   
3. Restart the PC

After restarting the PC, install the app from
Microsoft Store.



In addition, as you have mentioned that you are using a firewall to allow traffic between the devices, I would suggest you to disable the firewall and check if you are able to connect.



Note: If you disable the security software or firewall, the system might be temporarily exposed to security threats and risks. Please make sure to turn it on after performing the steps.



If the issue persist, please get back to us with the result of troubleshooting steps to assist you further with the issue.
