How to Fix Get Button Not Working on Microsoft Store
Is the “Get” button not working when trying to install any app from Microsoft store? Are you not able to install the app from Microsoft Store due to “Get” button not responding on the Microsoft store? Today in this post I will provide some troubleshooting steps which will help you to install the app successfully on your computer. Please follow the steps provided below to fix the “Get” button Not Working on Microsoft Store. Let’s start with a real-life scenario:
Windows Store get button not working, So I can’t install anything from Windows Store as far as I can see. I tried reinstalling it through the “Reset” option in settings, I reinstalled it through Windows PowerShell, I turned off my antiviruses, I used WSReset, I logged in and out, I restarted my computer multiple times, and still nothing changed. When I click Get, it becomes gray for a second, like it was thinking, and then comes back like nothing happened. When clicked again it becomes gray again but this time it takes almost no time for it to come back, like it didn’t react at all. I’ve been trying to resolve this issue and looking trough multiple threads if not hundreds at this point, for like last 2 hours. For now, I think I’ll just download an Android emulator and use the apps I want there.
