You won’t see anything happening, just wait a few seconds and it will disappear and the Store will relaunch. Or, launch the Command Prompt as Administrator and run the wsreset.exe command. Note: Alternately, you can also navigate to C:\Windows\System32 to find WSReset.exe. Then hit the Windows key and type: wsreset and then right-click the ‘wsreset Run command’ result from the top and select Run as administrator. Note that this will work in both Windows 10 Anniversary Update (Version 1607) and Windows 10 Creators Update (Version 1703).įirst, close the Store if it’s open. If you run into a situation where an app installation hangs or fails to update, resetting the Windows Store’s cache is one of the first troubleshooting steps to take, and it often resolves the issue. Sometimes Windows Store apps won’t update successfully and you receive an error.
