Windows 10: WINDOWS 10 Update makes Microsoft Store and other Microsoft preinstalled apps inaccessible.

It all started after an update. Initially, I thought nothing was wrong, but then when I clicked on Microsoft Store to download an app, it opened and loaded for about 5/10 seconds and then disappeared. I tried again, but this time it just appeared and disappeared in an instant. All other apps are greyed out as well, and some of them can't be opened, including Photos, Groove Music, and Camera. At first, they all loaded correctly they have their splash screen presented, but then disappeared and eventually, all had white underlines and now they can't be opened at all. White lines will eventually

Microsoft is purging a lot of low quality apps from the Windows Store

"Microsoft is sending emails to some Windows Store developers informing them that their apps have been removed from the Store for violating its quality standards."

"Neowin reports that app developers have been receiving these emails over the past couple of days:

In its latest review of the Store, Microsoft is evaluating if the published apps are good enough to be listed in the Windows Store. This includes publicly available apps as well as private beta apps. Additionally, Microsoft is also asking developers to delete any promotional campaigns for their apps to prevent advertising charges. Similarly, app name reservations are also being nullified; which means that if your app is unpublished, there's no guarantee that you'll be able to republish it under the same name.

Officially, the policies for the Microsoft Store says that apps must have "distinct and informative metadata" and "provide a valuable and quality user experience". There are also some specific standards that must be in the apps, including having a name that is not similar to another app or device, along with offering a description that is accurate about its features and functions.

There have certainly been many Windows Store users who have complained over the years about the large number of apps published that are clones of other apps or ones that are simply poorly made. Hopefully, this new move by Microsoft will help to curb these issues, at least for now."
