Can't install/update Microsoft Store on Windows 11 Pro (ARM)

I'll tinker with it a little bit more. The furtherest I got so far was that in notification I had message that Microsoft Store was downloaded, but when I clicked on it I got the same error as I sent above in screenshot.

 

Persistence was key for me. All I wanted to do was play pc games on my Mac with a friend and went on this journey that took way too long to figure out.
Initially when I installed windows the window store would open up and download something but it would keep getting stuck at random numbers. 31.1MB, 46.7MB, 71.4MB etc and would just stay there.

I opened power shell and found out the commands wouldn't work. So then I downloaded the new power shell it told me to download in powershell... lol that didn't work. Then I tried wsreset and it told me it couldn't find the command. Then I found the powershell ISE and ran that in 64bit with admin privileges and it allowed me to run the wsreset.exe -i command.
Then it told me that the windows store doesn't support arm64, so then I searched for an arm64 download link, and then that's when I came across the fix that worked for me.

initially I followed the steps and it didn't work, then I couldn't open the app at all like you're having. So I ran the command to download the store and it told me it already existed.

I found the file in C:\Users\yourusername\AppData\Local\Temp

found the file "allowARM_ms_store.reg"

deleted that, rebooted the computer

started up Windows Powershell ISE (x64) with admin privileges.

typed in the command
iwr -useb https://raw.githubusercontent.com/DaBigBlob/ms-store-arm64/main/allowARMv2.ps1/iex

It gave me a warning about reg file but it's a virtual machine so I'm like whatever and clicked ok

then I ran wsreset.exe -i

and the windows store popped up and I'm able to browse it. Play game pass and I'm happy.

in hope something here can help you guys, it was frustrating and I almost canceled my service.

for what it's worth I'm running windows 11 pro on a Apple M2 Pro MacBook 14" in parallels 19 after 8 hours the above steps worked for me. Good luck!

 

It didn't help.

 

Sorry to hear that. It fixed it for me and it still works by following those steps. Best of luck!

 

Maybe it's routing, are you able to use a VPN to try?

 

I just went back and tested the code provided from the link and it worked, so maybe something isn't being copied right, or you aren't in admin?

It didn't help.

There was an error in the symbol of the first link. / instead of |. Here is the correct link.
iwr -useb https://raw.githubusercontent.com/DaBigBlob/ms-store-arm64/main/allowARMv2.ps1|iex

Tried with VPN, tried without. Running as administrator.

This is what helped me.

 

THANK YOU!!!

This is what solved it for me. Thank the Lord.

 

After about 20th attempt it worked for me too!
For two days I have been repeating all steps from https://dabigblob.github.io/ms-store-arm64/ with no success. Monday morning, I tried the same and on second attempt it worked.
Thank you Mike85

 

Running into the same issue, I started here: Thank you @Mike85. That being said, anyone willing to install content from a GitHub repo without explanation of what they are installing is a fool (no, offense, @Mike85, but seriously?). I followed the instruction steps 1-3. Then ran the command here: How to Reinstall the Microsoft Store on Windows 11 (howtogeek.com).

Voila! All is good again.
