I was using two different email addresses. So inside MS Store, I logged off and logged back in under the XBox account. Then I clicked the 3 ellipses in MS Store, went to Downloads and Updates, clicked Get Updates and then it started updating.

Qas Did you try going in MS Store, click the 3 dots on the top right, click Downloads and Updates, and then Get Updates? That worked for me. It updated on a different screen than usual but started nonetheless.

September 7, 20214 yr Start rand: Well, i won't go that road just to get a download going. Why all of a sudden the XBox word not allowed? I will not, and i repeat, will not get an Xbox, nor download the XBox app for whatever stuff has to work on my "PC" in the first place. All of sudden my MSFS install isn't listed anymore either (although it still loads fine, works fine (well, sort off), didn't move places on drives so what gives? The Microsoft Store is just utterly word not allowed compared to what the competition has to offer. End rand!

September 7, 20214 yr Why Can't Microsoft figure out a way to update this program that works......Every time, it is something different.. Imagine what windows 11 will be like.
