free apps in windows 10 store is not downloading

Hi Raymond,

Thank you for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

Inconvenience regretted. Have you tried any troubleshooting steps so far?

Windows has a built-in troubleshooter to check and fix issues. I would suggest you to run this troubleshooter.

• Press Windows key +X, select Control panel
• Change the view by option on the top right to Large icons
• Click on troubleshooting and click on the view all option on the left panel
• Run Windows Store App troubleshooter.

If the issue persists I would also suggest you to go to C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution\Download
folder, select all and delete the files in it and try to download again.

Hope it helps.
