Can't install/update Microsoft Store on Windows 11 Pro (ARM)

I'll tinker with it a little bit more. The furtherest I got so far was that in notification I had message that Microsoft Store was downloaded, but when I clicked on it I got the same error as I sent above in screenshot.

Persistence was key for me. All I wanted to do was play pc games on my Mac with a friend and went on this journey that took way too long to figure out.
Initially when I installed windows the window store would open up and download something but it would keep getting stuck at random numbers. 31.1MB, 46.7MB, 71.4MB etc and would just stay there.

I opened power shell and found out the commands wouldn't work. So then I downloaded the new power shell it told me to download in powershell... lol that didn't work. Then I tried wsreset and it told me it couldn't find the command. Then I found the powershell ISE and ran that in 64bit with admin privileges and it allowed me to run the wsreset.exe -i command.
Then it told me that the windows store doesn't support arm64, so then I searched for an arm64 download link, and then that's when I came across the fix that worked for me.

initially I followed the steps and it didn't work, then I couldn't open the app at all like you're having. So I ran the command to download the store and it told me it already existed.

I found the file in C:\Users\yourusername\AppData\Local\Temp

found the file "allowARM_ms_store.reg"

deleted that, rebooted the computer

started up Windows Powershell ISE (x64) with admin privileges.

typed in the command
iwr -useb https://raw.githubusercontent.com/DaBigBlob/ms-store-arm64/main/allowARMv2.ps1/iex

It gave me a warning about reg file but it's a virtual machine so I'm like whatever and clicked ok

then I ran wsreset.exe -i

and the windows store popped up and I'm able to browse it. Play game pass and I'm happy.

in hope something here can help you guys, it was frustrating and I almost canceled my service.

for what it's worth I'm running windows 11 pro on a Apple M2 Pro MacBook 14" in parallels 19 after 8 hours the above steps worked for me. Good luck!

THANK YOU!!!

This is what solved it for me. Thank the Lord.
 
Running into the same issue, I started here: Thank you @Mike85. That being said, anyone willing to install content from a GitHub repo without explanation of what they are installing is a fool (no, offense, @Mike85, but seriously?). I followed the instruction steps 1-3. Then ran the command here: How to Reinstall the Microsoft Store on Windows 11 (howtogeek.com).

Voila! All is good again.

this is the solution. regular powershell with admin wasn't letting me run wsreset i literally spent all night trying to figure this out until i found this website. its ridiculous i have to do this after paying for a service by parallels
if you click the link start from the bottom first i did it top down and it failed. i started over from the bottom up and worked flawlessly. best of luck
1. windows search bar powershell ISE 64 run as admin
2. Get-AppxPackage -Name "Microsoft.WindowsStore" -AllUsers | Remove-AppxPackage
3. reboot
4. iwr -useb https://raw.githubusercontent.com/DaBigBlob/ms-store-arm64/main/allowARMv2.ps1|iex
5. click yes
6. click yes
7. wsreset.exe -1
