Guys I've found the solution... All this is happening because of some bugs in ur pc because of some errors during installation... The simple solution is to install windows 10 back by wiping everything in your pc... So I would recommend backup everything and do a fresh install of windows 10... Then u can come back to windows 11 again and everything will be fine... This also happens when u install windows 11 on an unsupported hardware.. So be careful guys

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).
I recently tried watching a video on my prime but the video didn't get played at first I thought the problem was with my prime so I uninstalled it but then I noticed the problem was with my store so I tried to reset and repair it,it didn't work and I can't install apps in my store I signed out and signed in, Reinstalled store through powershell,ran a scan and other shit I could find on YouTube but nothing fixed it,does someone know what to do?I even uninstalled my antivirus.
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.
Hi Abdullah Sabra,
Thank you for Posting in Microsoft Community.
I'm sorry to hear that you're experiencing issues with apps downloaded from the Windows 11 Store. To troubleshoot this issue, you can try the following steps:
- Check for Windows updates: Make sure your Windows 11 operating system is up to date by going to Settings > Update & Security > Windows Update.
- Reset the Microsoft Store cache: Press Windows key + R, type wsreset.exe, and press Enter. This will clear the Microsoft Store cache.
- Run the Windows Store Apps troubleshooter: Go to Settings > Update & Security > Troubleshoot > Additional troubleshooters > Windows Store Apps and follow the on-screen instructions.
- Reinstall the problematic app: Uninstall the app from Settings > Apps > Apps & features, then reinstall it from the Microsoft Store.
- Since you are using Windows Pro N I also suggest switching to Pro since Pro N Have some media related contents might be disabled.
Best Regards,

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!
Running windows 11 arm 22621.2215 install and the microsoft store app has disappeared. Using windows key and entering "microsoft store" brings up a hit that when you click it runs a troubleshooter process that doesn't resolve issue. I've tried the following search results suggested solutions and none of them has worked.
run "Check for updates" and apply them if offered
Dism.exe /Online /Cleanup-Image /Restorehealth
WsReset.exe
Get-AppxPackage -allusers *WindowsStore* | Remove-AppxPackage followed by Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers Microsoft.WindowsStore* | Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register "$($_.InstallLocation)\AppXManifest.xml"}
download and install the xbox app and lauch it and wait for it to display prompt to install missing microsoft store app dependency which never happened on my setup
Any suggestions on another option that is known to work?
