Windows 10: Windows updates not downloading and Microsoft store not downloading after pc reset

So i recently reset my pc, so I had to download everything again, but when I tried downloading any app from the microsoft store, I either get an error message or "downloading 1%", which it never actually makes any progress. When I check my windows updates, its flooded with some updates or downloads that are constantly stuck ad "status: Downloading - 0%"I have tried multiple powershell and cmd commands, with nothing working at all. please help!
