When I try to access the Microsoft Store I get Error Code: 0x80131500     CV: 0H5MOZaq8Uye8k8W

I've tried wsreset.exe- no success

I've tried https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/4027498/microsoft-store-fix-problems-with-apps - no success

I've tried to reset my region, language, and speech - no success

I've deleted the contents of the download directory and the datastore directory in c:\windows\softwaredistribution - no success

Ideas?

Windows for home | Windows 10 | Microsoft Store

Before you go through all of the Ultra-Geeky hassle (and possibly dangerous) methods above, try checking your Internet Security settings as outlined below:

Possible Fix:

Search for "Internet Options"

Open the App

Select the "Advanced" Tab

Scroll to the Bottom of the List where you can see "Use SSL/TLS"

UN-Select SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0 and 1.1

SELECT TLS 1.2 and (If Available) TLS 1.3

Click "Apply"

Click "OK"

Reboot Computer

YMMV

Good Luck!

    The above replies didn't resolve my issue. However, my issue was finally resolved by go to Settings - Network&Internet - WLAN - Choose apps that can use your WLAN data, and turn on the Microsoft Store there. 

    I don't know why all the apps here are turned off in my PC...

    I'm using win10 2020H2 on my surface pro 7, I can find the option down the internet option menu, but I just can't find it down the menu on my office's computer which is also running on win10, I guess there is certain difference between the win10 OS.

    but the post above do solve my problem.
