EDIT:I tried this first time, it all seemed to work, the download proceeded, however there was a different error code. Do I need to delete SoftwareDistribution and softwaredistribution.old for me to reach that same point again?

When I typed in ren c:\windows.... it came up with 'a duplicate file name exists, or the file could not be found', yet when I open my documents both files are there. When I tested out microsoft store again, the download didn't continue and the same code
popped up.

Hello ,

Thanks for reaching out to us, it seems that I found the answers you were looking for to help with the problem you are. I've listed all of the steps need to get you back in. If these steps don't work then, I'd recommend resetting the Window
Store application itself.

Start by running the Windows Store Apps troubleshooter.

Open Start > Settings > Update & security > Troubleshoot

Scroll down to the bottom

Click Windows Store Apps

Click Run the troubleshooter

When complete try opening the Store again.

Also check if the Store works in another user account.

Press Windows key + R

Type: wsreset.exe

Hit Enter

Do this a couple times then try launching the Store again.

Your Antivirus might be interfering with the Store, try disabling it 'temporarily' to see if it launches.

Check Windows Update and install the latest updates. Sometimes Microsoft releases infrastructure fixes for the Store through Windows Update.

When I ran the troubleshooter, it said hanging or crashing apps could not be fixed. I did the wsreset.exe thing a couple of times, to no avail. The same code popped up and the download didn't proceed. I have already disabled my antivirus also. My windows
is up to date.
