Microsoft store wont open, what do i do?

soo uh idk what to do my microsoft store aint working anymore and its starting to mess up other apps, i keep getting pop ups like "game bar cant open" or something along those lines. I tried to go to command prompt and powershell but neither have worked, i also tried to reset the app and repair it in settings but that didnt work either. So what else is left for me to do?

it might provide some insight into what is happening It captures packets... :bigkek: essentially just intercepts data in the form of network packets and saves them for analyzing intercepts is the wrong word perhaps. more accurately it just listens and records the packets being sent so yeah, maybe you can do that and upload the pcap here

start with a virus scan. It could be lots of things, I don't think we need to jump to packet captures yet. run a full virus scan. Make sure the virus definition are up to date. If you have system restore points that might also be something to consider. There's also potential for it to be a hardware issue, but lets work under the assumption its just software for the time being. Also, just to make sure all bases are covered, you have restarted your system and the problem persists? @real_sheesho did this get resolved?
