Hello All

Every day MS App store lists the same apps with update available,  select update all, and then think all is fine, and next day same list shows up again. 

Any advice on how to fix this for good?  

Should i resort to clean install?

On the AMD Ryzen 7 7700X Desktop

Try doing a reset/repair on the Windows store:

To reset the Microsoft Store on Windows 11, press the Windows key + I to open Settings, go to Apps & features, find Microsoft Store, click on it, select Advanced options, and then click the Reset button. This will clear the cache and restore the app to its default state, which can help resolve issues.

Hopefully Solved for Good Now

 

Ran WSReset.exe as Admin on Standard User account

Prior to that logged into my Admin account that i rarely log into, and went thru Settings, and selected Terminate Store, then Reset, Restarted system.

Logged into Standard User MS Account, open Windows Search, searched for WSReset.exe, right clicked Run as Admin, then restarted system a 2nd time.      

 

Opened Windows store, checked for updates--no list of same apps came up that time thankfully.       Hopefully now fully fixed for good, as I was dealing with that since i don't know when, as normally I don't check it too often, since Auto Updates are on, and i expect it to auto update the apps correctly lol. 

Now if it does somehow return, then I'm going to prepare for a full clean Windows 11 24H2 install, once RL annoyances are done within the next week or two.

So, one way or the other this issue going to be permanently solved

    • Playground Games confirms Forza Horizon 6 save wipe bug

      By TarasBuria · Posted

      Playground Games confirms Forza Horizon 6 save wipe bug by Taras Buria Forza Horizon 6 was launched last month to critical acclaim (check out our review here), and it became a smash hit in an instant. Now, weeks into the launch, with die-hard fans clocking hundreds of hours, Forza Horizon 6 is facing a serious issue: save wipes. After multiple complaints on Reddit and social media, the studio issued a statement. The problem with missing saves came shortly after Playground Games promised the initial batch of gameplay tweaks and improvements. Unfortunately, there seems to be no temporary fixes for those affected by unexpected save wipes. However, the studio published a new support document with a few important steps users should try. First, affected gamers should open a support ticket immediately (go here to file one) so that the support team can try recovering the lost progress by reverting to an earlier save. Playground Games says this should be done the same day the issue occurs. Meanwhile, gamers are urged not to start new play sessions or create new saves. The studio also published a few things gamers should try to avoid to prevent potential progress loss: Ensure your Gaming Services app on PC or XBOX Series X|S console is fully up to date. On XBOX Series X|S consoles, disable Quick Resume for Forza Horizon 6: To disable Forza Horizon 6 from using Quick Resume, highlight the game box art anywhere in the console experience (Home, My Games & Apps, Pins, etc) and then press the Menu button, then go to Manage game and add-ons > Quick Resume settings > Disable Quick Resume. Ensure you are online when ‘quitting’ the game. Give your saved time to sync to the cloud before powering off or switching devices. Do not force quit the game during save screens. Do not power off the device during gameplay. Always "Quit" (console) or "Exit to desktop" (PC) once you've finished your play session, ensuring the save icon is not visible when you’re closing the game. Before turning off your console, shutting down your PC, or force-closing the Steam app, give your devices or clients at least a few minutes to ensure your latest progress has been synchronized with the cloud. This will reduce the risk of progress reversions as you switch between different platforms. XBOX Series X|S consoles, Steam, and the XBOX app on PC all include game save indicators that confirm your progress has been synced. You can read more about the bug in the official support document here. Forza Horizon 6 is currently available on PC (Steam and the Microsoft Store), Xbox Series X|S, and Game Pass. The game is also coming to PlayStation 5 later this year.

    • Windows 11's big performance boost is finally available for all

      By leonsk29 · Posted

      If only Windows would have a toggle switch labeled "Get the latest updates as soon as possible" inside Windows Update settings... But nah, let's hide the new stuff inside a controlled feature rollout, even if the user is explicitly asking for the new stuff as soon as possible. Awesome idea!

      After watching the Apple event earlier this week it is quite the contrast. Apple is going back and tweaking the code to make things more efficient in many areas of MacOS. Windows is boosting your electric build to hide their issues.
