    Thanks! I had been able to install Preview but not regular Bedrock (was stuck on "Idle" when trying to download) and it was driving me crazy. I had tried a bunch of things, and I did the troubleshooter (found nothing), then windows store repair+reset, then the powershell script. One of these did the trick, now all my user accounts on the computer can install. Thank you!!!

    Mmh, I'm not sure if your steps were what helped me; I've gotten to 6:17, but so the game still wouldn't get installed. HOWEVER, I did installed what seemed to me like unrelated Windows Updates and for other Store Apps in the meantime (which I did prior to using your Guide, but there were more), and after restarting my computer a few more times, I gave Minecraft another shot and I was finally able to install it! So, maybe the last few steps to reset the Windows Store didn't took effect until I've restarted after doing my Updates, but then again I wouldn't know. Still though, thanks for these steps, they may've very well helped me!
