Minutes after my computer finished the 1703 update, Microsoft Store stopped successfully downloading and installing apps, including Microsoft Store itself.  All attempted updates get this error message:

And hopefully, it will be helpful in this case, as well.

Here’s how to run Windows 10’s built-in troubleshooter:

Click Microsoft Store Apps and choose Run the troubleshooter.

Solution 3 – Disable Windows Firewall

Expert Tip: Some PC issues are hard to tackle, especially when it comes to corrupted repositories or missing Windows files. If you are having troubles fixing an error, your system may be partially broken. We recommend installing Restoro, a tool that will scan your machine and identify what the fault is.

As the Windows Defender Firewall and the Microsoft Store are both Windows 10 elements, they’re supposed to work in harmony. However, that’s not always the case.

Sometimes, Windows Defender may block the Store. To eliminate that scenario, let’s go and disable the Firewall.

Here’s how to do that:

Disable Windows Firewall for both private and public networks.

Solution 4 – Run the SFC scan 

The SFC scan is another troubleshooter we’ll try now. This is a command-line tool that basically scans your system for potential flaws and eliminates them (if possible).

Here’s how to run the SFC scan in Windows 10:

Solution 5 – Repair Microsoft Store

If the aforementioned Store resetting didn’t get the job done, we’ll try to repair it. Here’s what you need to do:

When PowerShell opens enter Get-AppXPackage -AllUsers | Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register “$($_.InstallLocation)\AppXManifest.xml”} and press Enter to run it.

Solution 6 – Check Time & Date

Although it sounds banal, what if you got to date and time on your computer wrong? If that’s indeed the case, the Store simply won’t work, because it requires accurate time and date settings.

In case you’re not sure how to check date and time on your computer, just follow these instructions:

Enable the Select time zone automatically feature.

Solution 7 – Reset Microsoft Store

And finally, if the traditional resetting didn’t get the job done, let’s try and do it manually. Here’s how:
