That also didn’t work.
The issue was resolved after I re-installed windows but this time I enabled all data collection in the initial set up. I guess in order to have an okay user experience you need to sacrifice your privacy. Thanks Microsoft! :D

Hi Manuel,
I'm Sumit, here to answer your query at the Microsoft Community.
Usually a DNS Change will help.
Can you see if changing the DNS helps?
- Press Windows+R keys on the keyboard, or Right-click Start on the Taskbar and choose Run.
Type ncpa.cpl
Press Enter.
- Right-click your device and select Properties.
- Double click IPv4 options to open IPv4 properties.
4.Select the ""Use the following DNS servers"" radio box, and enter the following in the addresses.
1.1.1.1
1.1.2.2
- Click OK and OK again.
Restart your computer.
Keep us posted and Good luck!
Recently I have been wanting to play Minecraft bedrock with my friends so I tried to download via Microsoft Store and it would be on pending for hours just for the launcher download. Ive tried everything from windows updates sfc scans and more nothing seems to work for me. Also, its not just Minecraft every app I try to download end up stuck on pending and downloading 1 percent. Please help if you know any way I could fix this.

Hey!
Since I performed a clean install of Windows 11 on my new drive, the Microsoft Store is not able to update apps anymore. When selecting a new app to download or when updating an existing app, the library shows "Pending" or "Downloading" on the app. I waited for an hour and none have finished yet.
In the screenshot below, you can see the behaviour: https://imgur.com/a/hrD1mIX
Things I have tried:- Performed a clean install of Windows 11 (twice)
- Updated Windows to latest version|
- Under the Microsoft Store app options selected repair and reset.|
- Signed out and back in again in the Microsoft store
- Ran wsreset.exe
- Ran Windows store apps troubleshooter (says it couldn't identify any problems)
- Used System File Checker, as explained here (which reported no issues)
- Re-registered the store app using: Get-AppXPackage *WindowsStore* -AllUsers | Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register "$($_.InstallLocation)\AppXManifest.xml"}
None of these seem to have solved the issue. Does anyone know anything else I can try? Thanks!
-- Update --
This issue seemed to be on Microsoft's end, and was automatically resolved for me today (dec, 3rd).
Thanks for your reply. However, I did all the steps you mentioned and still the problem persists. Is there anything else I can do ?
