    Windows Store App stuck downloading but when refreshed changes amount downloaded.

    Hi,

    One possible reason why your download is stuck may be due to a corrupted file. We suggest that you try the following steps below:

    Method 1: Sign out/sign in

    • Open the Windows Store app.
    • Click on the account logo in the upper-right corner of the app, then click on your account name.
    • Click on you account name in the new box, then click Sign out.
    • Click on the icon in the upper-right corner again, then click Sign in and choose your account name again.

    Method 2: Reset Windows Store cache

    • Click Start, then type wsreset and select wsreset.
    • When the Store app opens, see if your downloads are working.

    Let us know if you will need further assistance.

    Windows Store download stuck on PENDING/STARTING DOWNLOAD

    Recently I have tried to download a game on the Windows store on Windows 10. It was a free game. It didn't get past the pending part and I couldn't do anything. I have tried:

    • Press Windows button + R Type wsreset.exe
    • Troubleshooting the windows update thing
    I want to be able to download the game without clearing all my apps. It is now on the 'Starting download' part and is stuck again. I have previously downloaded other apps and it usually downloads very fast.

    Could someone please give me a solution?

    Thanks
