Windows update fails on Windows Store?

Copper Contributor

Now, all Microsoft apps are checking for updates, at times they would download or be stuck checking for install or in a loop for downloading some info then becoming stuck. In order to resolve it I would have to go into services and restart Microsoft Store Install Service, then it would update the apps no issue. I ran the troubleshooter for that tonight as well in hopes of resolving this issue, but given how many users are having issues with Windows S mode recently on the store, anyone else have similar issues like me?

Sometimes the store cache can get corrupted, causing updates to fail or get stuck. You can reset the Microsoft Store cache by pressing Win + R to open the Run dialog, typing wsreset.exe, and then hitting Enter. This will clear the cache and restart the Microsoft Store.
