  1. Windows App Store Not Opening


    For the last few days, I have been unable to get the Windows App Store, or any apps downloaded from the windows app store, to be able to open. It opens the initial window and then just closes and nothing occurs. This also occurs with the xbox app. Is anyone else experiencing this problem? How do I fix this? Thank you for your help!

    :)

  2. App store not opening

    Hello Angie,

    Thank you for posting your query on Microsoft Community.

    With the issue description, I understand that you are getting an error “server stumbled code:
    0x801901F7 “while using
    Windows store on Windows 10 operating system. I will certainly help you in getting this fixed.

    I would like to tell you that this issue might be occurring because of damaged registry files, corrupt data and anti-virus or inappropriate settings of date and time

    Method 1: First of all check your system’s date and time. You may follow below mentioned steps:


              • Press Windows key + X, click on “Settings”

              • Click on “Time and language”

              • Change time and date, check if the issue persist

    Try method 2, if the issue persist

    Method 2: Try changing your network connection and test your system with different network settings. Make sure the system doesn’t have intermittent connectivity
    or limited WiFi problem. Also make sure the network connection have enough strong strength.

    Try method 3, if the issue persist

    Method 3:
    Run “Powershell” command



    1. Open the Task manager. Here’s a tip:
    Press CTRL+Shift+ESC.

    2. Click File > Run New Task

    3. Make sure you have a check mark beside “Create this task with administrative privileges”

    4. Type Powershell

    5. Type the following in the Powershell prompt:

    $manifest = (Get-AppxPackage Microsoft.WindowsStore).InstallLocation + '\AppxManifest.xml' ; Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register $manifest

    6. Close the Powershell window

    7. Reboot the computer

    Hope this information is helpful. Please write back to us if you need any further assistance, we'll be glad to assist you.

    I downloaded Windows 10 the day after it came out, and the app store worked just fine. Then, a couple of days ago, it just quit working. It says the server stumbled and gives me error code 0x801901F7 every time.

    I have the exact same issue and have tried all the suggested steps in regards to reinstalling via powershell script and deleting Appdata cache folder. No method has worked.

  5. I can get to the App Store but nothing will download, and some apps do work (Facebook) while others don't (Mail).

  6. For those of you still experiencing this issue, if the powershell command fails due to missing folders/files/Sys32 then I have finally had success by "resetting" my PC to factory default. This sent me back to 8.1 and erased all of my files and programs but resolved the issue once I upgrade to Windows 10 again. It appears an update had removed some critical files and due to the reset, the files have been restored.
