[Win 11] Microsoft store's Apps close on while on sleeping

Then that is a sleep or display issue, not the Store. You've already tried everything for the store.

When was your last Clean Install, as this may be your best option to get a fresh start. Look over this best tutorial: https://www.windowscentral.com/how-do-clean-ins...

Create the bootable media following the steps under Create Installation Media, clicking to read the link "Before you Start" at https://www.microsoft.com/en-in/software-downlo...

Make sure during the booted install to unplug all other drives, boot the media as a UEFI Device, choose Custom Install, delete all partitions down to Unallocated Space to get it cleanest, choose the Unallocated Space, click Next to auto-create and -format the needed partitions and begin install - this makes it foolproof.

After install expedite all Windows Updates including Optional until no more are offered. Then import any drivers from the PC maker's Support Downloads web page for your model that are newer, or branded instead of generic. The most basic thing we need to learn to maintain a PC is how to keep the latest manufacturer's drivers current. Windows drivers are rarely enough.

Make it a diagnostic install by monitoring for the issue after you reinstall each app, Update, settings or any modifications. Have System Restore points set so you can roll back before the change that causes this, if you isolate it.

Until then you can Go over Windows 11 with this Performance Checklist to try to find and fix problems:

I've bought my laptop only 2 months ago. And it doesn't sound normal to make a clean install now. I used Macs for last 6 years and never re-installed OS. That's absurd.

Just check the links in my very first post and google my problem - there are dozens of cases. It's not a "display issue" if only Microsoft Store Apps are affected. And it's not a "sleep" issue cause I can get same result by switching desktops couple of times.

I just beginning to hate MStore and this laptop each time it causes my work to be lost. Something intentionally closes MS apps. Without crash messages and reports.

Hi Elijah -

I'm just telling you what Windows enthusiasts do to assure best performance, they will only run a Clean Install. Some people don't want to be bothered by it. They want Windows to just run well by itself.

Let's focus on the Store apps themselves. The problem would not be with the Store unless the Store is dysfunctional. Does in install and update apps normally?

1. See if you can System Restore to a point before the problem started:

System Restore is your first line of defense and can take you back to a point before a problem began like a time machine. If it doesn't help then you can undo it. Read about it first in the tutorial above and then try restoring to just before this started. If System Restore is not enabled on C drive do that now so it's available in the future.

If the problem repeats or System Restore doesn't work then check which Windows Updates were installed at Settings > Update & Security > Windows Updates > Update History, uninstall them there or System Restore again, then immediately check for and block the Updates with the Hide Updates tool explained here: https://www.tenforums.com/tutorials/8280-hide-s...

2. Try running the Store Apps troubleshooter at Settings > System > Troubleshoot > Other Troubleshooters
3. Check if there's another Update for the App in Microsoft Store app > My Library > Get Updates,.
4. Establish a Clean Boot to get rid of Startup freeloaders that can hog resources and cause issues by conflicting:

5. Reset the app trying all four Options here:

6. If those all fail then try uninstalling at the above location, restart PC, then reinstall it from Microsoft Store Settings > My Library.
7. Run System File Checker/DISM in WIndows 11:

8. If that doesn't fix it then you can do a Windows 11 Repair Upgrade which reinstalls Windows while saving your files and apps in place, brings it up to the latest version by the most stable method, takes about an hour and resolves most problems: https://www.elevenforum.com/t/repair-install-wi...

Feel free to ask back any questions. If you'll report back results for each step, including in each link, it can help determine what else we need to try. I will stick with you until it is fixed.

Hello Elijah -

I'm standing by here to help you if you'll report back results of the steps I gave.

This is an interactive process. I give steps to perform, you do each one and then report back results until something works, so I know what to suggest next. If you need help performing any step, just ask back. But please do not skip any steps. We often find out the skipped step is the fix.

It seems I've found the solution (but not 100% sure for now).

The problem started after one of cumulative updates. I decided not to uninstall them but reinstall all possible drivers for the laptop.

Took drivers here https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=103505

Last couple of hours - no app closing.
