I recently did a clean install of Windows 10 on my desktop PC and I haven't been able to use the Windows Store ever since. Every time i click on an app in order to download it I get a progress ring for a few seconds and then the store crashes. Settings an Downloads open just fine. My date and time are correct and I have already tried deleting the \AppData\Local\Packages\Microsoft.WindowsStore_8wekyb3d8bbwe\LocalCache folder to no avail. No one on the internet seems to have encountered the exact same problem. Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

As it turns out, it IS related to my computer's date and time but is most likely a bug on Microsoft's part. I had correct Date and Time for my timezone and turning auto sync on or off in the Settings app didn't fix anything. Going to the classic (Control Panel) Date and Time settings > Internet Time > Update Now fixed it for me.
