How do I fix "This app can't open. Check the store for more info."?

About a few months ago, my Xbox won't load certain games. So far it's been Doom Eternal, Fallout 4, and Skyrim. Other games load just fine, but once it gets to a large sized game, it won't load. It's incredibly frustrating and disappointing because these are some of the main games I've wanted to try. I have searched online, and I've found a bunch of resolutions going through powershell and whatnot. I feel like I've done everything except reinstall windows, and I'd rather not have to do that

I'm going to try that right now. Another thing to note, out of curiosity, I went to the file location to maybe try and load the game from there instead of Xbox. I can launch the game, but only in a very small window with no way to change the resolution.

Nothing worked.

Fallout 4 has been my test game, and it wouldn't show up on xbox in my admin account, so after trying to install it from the xbox app, it downloaded immediately with an error message of 08x00070005. I can't even try to load it up on the admin account

Hello. This is all I've done to try and fix it:

checked windows update
scanned my system for corrupt files using sfc /scannow in command prompt. some were corrupt, but it said repaired
reinstalled apps using Get-AppXPackage | Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register "$($_.InstallLocation)\AppXManifest.xml"}
tried to restart and repair the actual apps through windows settings
reset the store cache running wsreset.exe
uninstalled/reinstalled the xbox app

I'm at a complete loss on what to do aside from reinstalling windows, which I really don't want to do. And I just tried Fallout 76, and that doesn't work as well.
