  1. I cant cancel a Download


    I tried to pre-download the game City Skylines 2. The Download got stuck at approx 21% so i have tried to cancel it. But the problem i have now is that the cancel Download button doesnt work anymore. I have tried to delete the files but that didnt work. I have also reset the app which also had no effect.

    Hi Pascal Ullrich,

    Greetings!

    Thank you for publishing in Microsoft Community.

    We understand that you're experiencing issues with canceling the download of City Skylines 2 on your Windows PC. I'll be happy to assist you with this.



    To start with, I would suggest you try the following steps:



    Step 1: Restart your PC

    Sometimes, restarting your PC can help resolve issues with downloads. Please try restarting your PC and then check if you're able to cancel the download.



    Step 2: Clear the Windows Store Cache

    Clearing the Windows Store cache can help resolve issues with downloads. Here are the steps to clear the cache:



    1. Press the Windows key + R to open the Run dialog box.

    2. Type "wsreset.exe" (without quotes) and press Enter.

    3. Wait for the command to complete, and then try to cancel the download again.



    Step 3: Reset the Windows Store

    If clearing the cache doesn't work, you can try resetting the Windows Store. Here are the steps to reset the Windows Store:



    1. Press the Windows key + R to open the Run dialog box.

    2. Type "wsreset.exe" (without quotes) and press Enter.

    3. Wait for the command to complete.

    4. Press the Windows key + I to open the Settings app.

    5. Click on "Apps".

    6. Scroll down and click on "Microsoft Store".

    7. Click on "Advanced options".

    8. Scroll down and click on "Reset".

    9. Wait for the reset to complete, and then try to cancel the download again.



    If the above steps do not work, you can try uninstalling and reinstalling the game. To do this, follow these steps:



    1. Press the Windows key + I to open the Settings app.

    2. Click on "Apps".

    3. Scroll down and click on "City Skylines 2".

    4. Click on "Uninstall".

    5. Wait for the uninstall to complete.

    6. Restart your PC.

    Then check if you can cancel the download on the Microsoft store app.

    1. Open the Microsoft store app.
    2. Click on the three dots in the upper-right corner of the screen.
    3. Click on "Downloads and updates"
    4. Find City Skylines 2 and click on the X next to it



    I hope these steps help you resolve the issue. We look forward for you response.

    Thank you,
