    Windows Store - Can't install games or apps


    I bought the game pass for PC and successfully installed a game or two yesterday. However today when i tried to install a game the store was downloading 'Gaming Services' along with the game but got stuck on the installation faze. So i googled the problem and reset the store with 'WSreset'. After successfully fixing the issue of Gaming Services not installing, i now cannot install the game i originally wanted. When hitting get updates it just loads forever and states 'There was a problem on our end' I have done everything like the Powershell commands, Deleting the software distribution folder. When i troubleshooted it gave me a problem saying 'Hanging or crashing apps' I also opened cmd and did sfc /scannow.

    The only thing that the store seems to be able to do is get to the pending stage of apps and games i already own but it never moves. I can play and run games fine that are already installed though. So frustrating.

    Windows Store to Pack "Mature" Games and Apps

    They announce this right after they said weren't going to carry any of it... Ya think some investors told them to stfu and take money? *Laugh :laugh:

    I wonder how long it will be before you can't install noncertified apps? The app store is the 1st stepping stone. Although, you'd have to be an idiot to give 30% to these clowns.

    Windows Store - Can't install games or apps

    Missing apps: Store, People, Photos, Games & Camera on upgrading to 10

    Thanks for replying spunk. That's the 'alphabetical' list I was referring to, none of these apps are in that 'All apps' list. Any more suggestions?
