Why won't my apps install on my Acer Aspire M running Windwos 10?

[Windows Central Question]

I received a Minecraft Windows 10 Beta key but I can't install the app because it has two apps in line in front of it it that will never continue their updates or even start for that matter. The two programs that need to update are Netflix and Microsoft Visual C++ 2013 Runtime package. Both are stuck at 1.7 MB of their updates, however they've been like that ever since I tried to download Minecraft Windows 10 edition. How do I cancel those installations, or remove them so I can download things from the Store?
