For no apparent reason whatsoever, the Windows 10 Store is not working on my PC.
I'm running the normal, up-to-date version of Windows 10 Home on my Dell XPS 12, upgraded from Windows 8.1 via the normal upgrade route.
The app is visible, but when I click on it nothing happens. Not having the Store obviously means I cannot update any apps, let alone install new ones.
I don't have a system restore point (stupid from my side - I know), so I'm not sure what to do. I wanted to do a Windows "refresh", but it seems I don't have that option - it seems I can only "restore" and loose all apps and settings (but keep files at least).
Still losing wifi sporadically for no apparent reason. Other devices still working on same wifi router, so signal is not a problem. It drops off at least once a day.
Tried all the recommended fixes including updated drivers, down-shifting to 802.11b.
Only "solution" is to disconnect and reconnect. Feels like going back to dial up days!! This part of Win 10 is appalling - NOT an improvement. And of course it always happens as the most inopportune time.
I initially went back to Win 7 and it all worked fine for over a week without one issue. As soon as I returned to Win 10 it started immediately, so it's definitely a Win 10 issue.
My computer was working fine with Windows 10... but has developed a BSOD issue. I can't think of any changes I've made/programs installed etc, though this is likely the cause. I've run SFC /Scannow along with dism.exe /online /cleanup-image /scanhealth &dism.exe /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth
Everything says it's fine... but I'm still crashing. I've attached a copy of the file created as requested... but I'm very much at my wits end.
WINNIPEG-26_08_2015_190423_22.zip
When first running Scannow, it showed an issue with this file: MicrosoftEdgeSquare44x44.scale-125_contrast-white.png, which I have replaced with another version.
Earlier, I went onto the app store to download a new game, but there wasn't any install button. Additionally, those spinning dots just stayed on the page not going away, even when I went back to the main page. I restarted my computer, but to no avail. I logged out on the store, but now I get an error whenever I try to log back in.
EDIT: This happens for every app and game, not just the one I'm trying to download.
Okay having a very annoying issue with win10 as of late and its been baffling the heck out of me, my CPU fan without any good reason speeds up every so often in windows 10.
It doesnt do it in Linux, I have tried an array of software removals, virus scans, system shutdowns, cleaning dust out my system but for some confounded reason it only does it in windows 10 with little to no reason.
I can eliminate its my CPU, sure its a stock intel cooler but if it was a fault with my cooler dont you think it would effect linux as well?
I can eliminate my antivirus, I had panda free antivirus and removed it... installed another AV (avira) but still the issue comes with no explanation.
I have checked for steam running in the background, checked off any apps that might cause this in my system tray, turned off cortana, everything under the sun but still cannot figure this one out.
I am experiencing issues with some core apps alike store, calculator, contacts etc. The live tile is showing these apps with title like @{Microsoft. WindowsStore_2015.... etc. I tried to reinstall the apps via admin powershell but it stops with error
Add-AppxPackage : Deployment failed with HRESULT: 0x80073CF6, Package could not be registered.

Also created a new user too. That account also have the same issue.I do have an image of the drive. Can i copy some thing from it to fix the problem?
After downloading Windows 10, thing worked well for a few weeks. After trying to download "Windows Essentials", my entire system has been in disarray. I went back to a previous version of Windows 10 before the corruption, but now NONE of my native Windows10 apps will open. I receive the following error: "There's a problem with (whichever app). Contact your system administrator about repairing or reinstalling it."The PC App Store icon is gone completely (as is the Microsoft Edge app and icon), and when trying to open it through "Search", I receive the following error: "Problem With Shortcut: The drive or network connection that the shortcut 'PC App Store.lnk' refers to is unavailable. Make sure that the disk is properly inserted or the network resource is available, and then try again."I've tried the wsreset fix, but receive the following error: "MS-Windows-store.PurgeCaches. The application cannot be started.
I upgraded my win 7 to 10 like a month ago, and since then I have a strange problems on my (desktop) computer.
Firstly I noticed the problem with user accounts: I have 3 user accounts, and from time to time everything disappear from my desktop (icons and stuff) and seems like just rebooting works. Then I noticed that I can't view any images, as windows default "Photos" app suddenly stopped working, so my primary photo view app is automatically changed to "TWINUI" - whatever that is. And I can't change it, as the only option I can see is paint o.0 Then I wanted to go to store and see if I can get some other app for this, but now I can't even enter the store - it just doesn't responding at all, no errors, no nothing.
I have a latest win 10 build - and I'm updating it regularly .
Woke up this morning to windows store app when i open it just doing a circle thing, and windows mail will open but wont let me do anything, what is going on, beginning to think windows 10 was a big mistake.
TI had a problem with Windows store not working or edge not launching on my PC etc etc what is the best method to try and fix without draconian measures? if something went wrong I would want to try and restore functionality with as little requirement to go back and re install stuff as possible. I'd look to a measure that leaves user accounts intact and things like iTunes, steam, all my games, game clients, office 2016 all still installed and not removed. To lose all of that just to try and get the store or edge back and running seems too severe. It would take many, many hours perhaps days to get back to where I was. Especially would be nervous about iTunes which with its connection to iCloud music library would be disastrous to unsettle. I have my boot SSD drive and a larger secondary mechanical hard drive. All my software is installed across both locations although the steam library resides on the secondary given the colossal game install sizes we have nowadays.
First time to use the Store App today to install some apps after upgrade to Win 10 for 2 weeks. It is not working, The App open but nothing show up, it keeps displaying downloading sign. I have no way to upgrade or uninstall this App
I'm not sure why but occasionally my PC will just stop. No blue screen or any notice, it just turns of. After a sew seconds you can switch it on again. It seems to primarily occur when I start a game (battlefront 3 or fallout for example).
My PC: CPU: AMD FX8350 Black Edition 8 Core Processor GPU: Sapphire Radeon R9 270X 4GB 1020MHz GDDR 5 PCI Express Graphics Card CPU Fan: Zalman CNPS10X CPU Cooler RAM: AVEXIR CORE BLUE SERIES 16GB (2X8GB) DDR4 Memory: 240GB SSD. 1.5TB HDD
I have a wd hdd 2tb. Which I splitted 500gb for c and other for storage purposes.
Suddenly my c got filled which must have 100gb free space and shows me 0bytes free space.
So I tried to delete some files and got 50 gb free space and In an instant it went to 0bytes. I tried to clear the temp files and reduce the size of restore drive. But still no use.
Today my computer has started crashing for no obvious reason giving me a bluescreen. No errors found in the event log and it crashed while just browsing the web. No newly installed applications just before the crash as I can recall.
Message on lblue screen: If you want more information you can search for DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL (L1C63x64.sys)
My windows 10 laptop acts really weird with the the audio devices. I am using a tascam audio card for some audio editing and the internal realtek for everything else. Since i installed windows 10, the audio playback will stop whenever i am playing a game or talking on skype. It might do it or might not, but it happens everyday usually about 20 minutes of using the computer. Then, i have to restart the laptop so that everything goes back to normal. Thats it, the sound stops, and i have to restart.
I am attaching a DXDiag here.

Just got windows 10 and my second monitor isn't being detected when it clearly is plugged in. I'm assuming this is a problem with my drivers for my graphics card, but when I tried to open the GeForce experience it said that it (the GeForce experience) failed to install/ I tried downloading the drivers without the GeForce experience but that also said it failed to install. also the Nvidia control panel won't open for some reason.
I've recently created a thread stating that Start Menu, Settings and everything on taskbar were not working (such as volume control and wi-fi networks). I reinstalled Windows (clean install) and it was good again until today, when it started again.
I tried to open Settings via "ms-settings:" via Run, but it says that "limit time was reached" (It's a rough translation, as Windows language in my notebook is not in English). If I press Windows key + P (ms-settings:display), it won't open and I get a message that "this file has not an associated program to it to perform this task". Install a program, or in case there's one already installed, create an association in Defaul Programs control panel." Basically, this a list of what is not opening anymore:
Start Menu, Settings (and all options within it), Windows tray icons (power options, wi-fi networks etc.).
I've already rebooted Windows but I didn't fix anything. I don't know man, this is the second time this issue arises after a clean install. Windows 10 is buggy as hell, what's up with Settings and Start menu not opening anymore? Is Windows 10 still in beta? Seriously, did MS test Windows 10 at all? It doesn't look so. If this keeps happening I'll have to return to Windows 8.1 which was working fine
i get this error all the time for no definitive reason at all. the machine has only been built for a few months. i just clean installed win 10. did memchck and it didn't fix my problem.

In the last day or two, I noticed that the font size and style on the vast majority of websites that I visit has been changed, and it's not a good change! It looks like Times New Roman now, and though I don't know what the font style was before, I know it wasn't this.
Also, what a typical web font size is, but it seems that the size now is probably somewhere in the 8-10 point range. Nothing has changed in my settings that I'm aware of - at least I'm not the one that made any change. I currently have zoom to 250% which is what is recommended for this Dell XPS 13. That's what it's always been set at, and everything looked fine before. Almost everything from Google, to Facebook - you name it - is displaying this new font style and size.
