Hey Guys,


I have been having this issue where if I go the Microsoft Store -> Downloads -> Check for updates, it is always bringing the same apps to be updated. Do you guys know anything I can do to fix this? It is so annoying.

P.S.: I have already tried resetting the "Microsoft Store" app.

Since the last update of Microsoft Store, some apps takes ages for update. Some apps stay in the same state as you, and suddenly, they update all of a sudden.
I recommend you to be patient to see if they update throughout the day. Just in case, restart your computer.

Your MS Store does not look quite right in some visual elements which maybe due to System mods or just out of date.

It's updating is very variable presumably due to their server loads and so forth. Some Apps do updates on a daily basis on occasions.
So what you are seeing is not out of the norm for the MS Store.

The following is from AI

When the Microsoft Store keeps showing the same apps over and over without actually updating them, it can be a symptom of a few things acting up. Here's a checklist you can go through to troubleshoot it:

🛠 Try These Fixes​

  • Restart First Classic advice for a reason. A simple reboot can sometimes clear stuck update queues.
  • Run the Windows Store Troubleshooter Go to Settings → System → Troubleshoot → Other troubleshooters, then run the one for Windows Store Apps.
  • Clear the Microsoft Store Cache Press Win + R, type wsreset.exe, and hit Enter. This will open a blank Command Prompt window for a bit—once it closes, the Store will launch.
  • Check for System Updates Head to Settings → Windows Update and make sure you're fully updated. Sometimes Store issues are resolved with system-level patches.


  • Log Out and Back In Open the Store, click on your profile picture, and sign out. Wait a moment, then sign back in to refresh authentication.

    you can reinstall the Store using PowerShell:
    Open powershell as administator.
    Get-AppXPackage -Name *Microsoft.WindowsStore* -AllUsers | Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register "$($_.InstallLocation)\\AppXManifest.xml"}

  • 🔄 Note from the Community Other users with Windows 11 24H2 (build 26100.4351) have noticed that some apps just seem to "stall" in the update queue—only to update later without warning. This might be related to server-side quirks, especially if you're seeing the same ones pop up repeatedly. Patience, in some cases, really is the fix.

  • This is from me. You can also do an inplace upgrade if nothing else works
    OR
    you can wait for to see if the 25h2 upgrade in the fall fixes it.
