    Why is my Microsoft Store loading but ultimately failing?


    I have recently been trying to bypass an issue with Minecraft where my game is incompatible with the launcher. I was

    prompted on my old launcher to update/install the new one, and it redirected me to the Microsoft Store with a message saying "We are having trouble connecting to the Microsoft Store right now."

    It says that I own both Minecraft and the Minecraft Launcher, and only prompts me with a large blue button that says "Install." However, when I click on it, the button greys out for up to 2 minutes, (seemingly loading) then it goes back to the blue color without any popup window or other prompt.

    I have tried uninstalling the old version of the launcher, clearing the Microsoft Store's cache, resetting the app, uninstalling and reinstalling the store, running the troubleshooter, doing Windows updates on my whole computer, pursuing the app through the Xbox app, deleting apps from my computer (in hopes to free storage space) and have gone around in circles trying to get the app to download.

    Because Minecraft.net is seeming to have a problem connecting, I've begun to think it is an issue with the store.

    I'd be grateful for any help!

    :)

    Why is my Microsoft Store loading but ultimately failing?

    Hello Linda Bette,

    Welcome to Microsoft Community.

    I can see that you are having issues with the Microsoft Store and Xbox App, let me see how I can assist you with your concern.

    Please perform the following troubleshooting steps to try and fix the issue.

    Troubleshoot Gaming Services

    Reinstall the Gaming Services app on your Windows 10/11 device:

    1. Select the Search icon on the taskbar, type powershell, right-click on Windows PowerShell, and then select Run as administrator.
    2. In Windows PowerShell, type the following command and press Enter:

      get-appxpackage Microsoft.GamingServices | remove-AppxPackage -allusers
    3. In the same window, type the following command and press Enter:

      start ms-windows-store://pdp/?productid=9MWPM2CQNLHN
    4. Install the app on that page and select Yes when you receive the User Account Control (UAC) prompt.
    5. Restart your device and try to install the game again.

    Fail loading in the Microsoft Store

    Hello,

    Sorry to hear you are having trouble downloading Minecraft from the store. Have you already purchased it through Mojang, or are you looking to purchase and download it?

    You can try downloading the Minecraft Launcher which has access to Minecraft for Windows, Minecraft: Java Edition and Minecraft Dungeons all in one launcher.

    I recommend checking this article: Troubleshoot game installations on a Windows device Then scroll down to Still having problem and follow the steps to reinstall the game services

    Regards,

    Hayabusa
