While this helps my day-to-day computer usage and prevents Windows from chewing up all my bandwidth to update itself, it also crippled anything I wanted to download through the Windows Store app. When setting up my PC I had crippled Windows download speeds to 0.1 Mbps.Start / Windows Button -> ⚙️Settings -> Update & security -> Delivery Optimization -> Advanced options.Check to make sure you didn’t cripple the download speeds yourself.Turn on “Set time automatically” and “Set time zone automatically” and click “Sync now”.Start / Windows Button -> ⚙️Settings -> Time & Language.An incorrect time might be used by a malicious person or program to breach a system. Many programs try to synchronize and authenticate each other across the internet – using agreed upon times as a basis. This sounds kinda crazy, but it’s a legit reason why Minecraft might not be installing.Make sure the time zone and clock are up to date.Click “Repair,” let the computer do it’s thing, then click “Reset.”.Scroll down until you see “Microsoft Store,” select it and click “Advanced options”.Start / Windows Button -> ⚙️Settings -> Apps.You should see a two letter (probably your first and last initials) circular icon in the top menu bar for this app.Right click on any “Minecraft” processes as select “End task.”.(Right clicking on an empty space on the task bar can also bring this up as an option in the context menu.


Press Ctrl + Shift + Esc to open the Task Manager.Ended all Minecraft processes / programs that were running.The easiest first step was to get off the wifi extended and onto the main wifi network.Making sure I was on a speedy wifi network.
