5 TopicsSurface won't update or open Microsoft Store
Hello community, I have in my hands an old surface that I can't figure out why I cannot update the system nor open Microsoft Store. Operating System: Win8.1 RT Model: Surface 1516 I have formatted the device several times, downloaded a new copy of a "recovery drive for usb" but still nothing (SurfaceRT_BMR_10.8.17.0.zip). Do I need to download certain patch/service pack? Any help is appreciated.Solved5.1KViews0likes4CommentsWelcome to the Surface Pro 4 Community!

Dear all, A few days ago I bought a new keyboard with the fingerprint recognition. I have attached the new keyboard to my Surface pro 3, the typing works, however, I am not able to set up the fingerprint recognition. When looking through the devices, the message "driver is unavailable" is visible under the device. I have everything updated and uninstalled & restarted (through devices and device manager) my computer several times. Has anyone encountered the same problem or knows if I can download the driver separately on the internet? Looking forward to your reply and thank you in advance, Sara2.4KViews0likes1CommentWelcome to the Surface Pro 3 Community!
