Windows 10 Store crashes on update and then won't open

I deleted everything in the cache folder as instructed, then tried the update. The store app appeared to crash like before, but this time it allowed me to re-open the store. It also appears that the update actually installed as well. I'm calling it fixed. Thanks for your help.

Windows 10 Store crashes on update and then won't open

The reinstall of all the apps thing is dangerous. I have found that it can really mess up some apps, giving this error about "merge" something or other. When that happens it seems there's no going back either. It won't let you uninstall OR reinstall the app and the only option is system restore...

Windows 10 Store app will not download updates error 0x803F7000

I created a new account, deleted my old account, and then associated my Microsoft account with the new PC account. This appears to have fixed the issue. I will report back if the problem comes back.

Windows 10 Store app will not download updates error 0x803F7000

For what it's worth, I don't think it's a problem with the store itself. I added another Microsoft account to my "family" via Settings:Accounts:Family & Other Users, and that new user was able to use the store to download and update apps without issue. I think the problem lies in my main account...
