    I swear i NEVER comment on videos but THIS? THIS has saved me from so many hours trying to figure out why the Xbox app was not downloading and kept getting an error code!!! I tried NUMEROUS amount of different ways to try and fix it and nothing worked. 5th hour in i was going to give up then remembered that you can force download apps via command prompts! Came across your video, did everything step by step and BOOM! Finally have the app installed after 5 long pain staking hours!!! THANK YOU FOR THIS MY GUY!!!

      I’m having problems with my xbox app and have tried this method but when I download the file using the adguard command prompt I just get black screened with the xbox logo. Which app file did you force download? Is it the 305mb file you force download?

    I lost so much data including my mail app and microsoft store when I changed some paths between disks a bit too chaotically. I had tried everything from shady dowloads to trying to contact the microsoft support team, to no avail. So I just decided to look over some codes and study the powershell a bit and there I was! Finding you and the treasure trove that your site and your channel are.
    Thank you so much! You also got me more interested in code, so maybe I found a new little hobby too :)

I made a windows iso using msmg toolkit And removed the store. After trying to Install the games it refused to run on that iso build. later, had to build another one with the Microsoft store.. So is there a way around it by any chance to bypass those dependencies And run the games without it?

      It's insne how poorly some sites/services are. For instance, the Realtek Audio Console or HD AUdio Manager should be downloaded from the store as they suggest. Now, search for it manually in their store, you get to knockoff apps with 1 review and a price of 5 dollar. I'm sure a grandmother would think: "Well okay, Mr. Microsoft. After spending 4500 dollar on my basic laptop like the vendor told me, the extra 5 bucks is fine. I'm in when I need to, i want to hear my grandchildren!"

    Hello, thank you for the video. Could you explain how to manage the Microsoft Store within an Enterprise environment with Endpoint/intune. For example, prevent the user from downloading apps that are not approved from the Microsoft Store. For example, I dont want staff members the ability to install Netflix or games from the Microsoft Store. What would be best practice, would you completely block Microsoft Store? How would this impact apps that depend on updates from the Microsoft store?

    Can I install the Astro command center? I'm asking because for whatever reason the app store is not letting me after I had to reboot my laptop.
