  1. Windows Store - Will not download specific apps


    Hello All... I'm sure this issue has been brought up... I have scoured Microsoft forums. Tried every fix, including a Factory Hard Reset. I'm at my wit's end. Windows will not download and install at all Gears of war 4. Just won't do it. Sits on the download. The store will download everything else... just not that one game, on any drive. To be frank... Microsoft you need to fix your stuff... I get better service out of the other providers and have nothing but problems with your store... Here is what I have done:


    Used windows Powershell command: Get-AppXPackage *WindowsStore* -AllUsers | Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register "$($_.InstallLocation)\AppXManifest.xml"}


    Used windows command prompt command: wsreset


    Updated and restarted computer (with an additional 3 separate restarts)


    Reinstall windows


    deleted and attempted to redownload folders in windows explorer


    I'm out of options other than just staring at Gears of war 4... So I plead: What else do I need to do to get your game to download?

    :)

  2. Windows 10 Apps from the store wont download

    Hi Sumon,

    Sorry for the delay in response.

    • Do you face this issue only with these apps?
    • Did you try downloading other apps?
    • Did you try stopping these apps and then downloading it again?
    We would suggest you to try the steps mentioned in the link

    • Type troubleshooting in the search
      box
      and hit Enter.
    • Click View all from the left pane and select Windows store apps.
    • Follow the on-screen instructions and check.
    If the steps don't work try these steps:

    Try to reset the Windows store and check.
    • Press Win + R on the keyboard to open run Window.
    • Type wsreset.exe to reset the Windows store cache.
    Hope this information helps.

    Windows Store - Will not download specific apps

    can't download app from store, Windows 10

    Hi,

    As a first troubleshooting step, we suggest to clear the Windows Store cache and try again. Here are the steps:

    • Press Windows key+Q
    • type wsreset.exe on the search bar
    • Hit enter key
    This should clear the Windows Store cache after restarting your system.

    An alternative fix is to run the troubleshooter for Windows apps. Check out this
    article
    and download the troubleshooter. Once downloaded, run the program and follow the steps to proceed with the troubleshooting steps.

    Let us know how it goes.
