    FWIW, another Windows site says the work around for Windows Phone 8.1 is to temporarily set the phone's date to December 3, 2017.

    Logged in to ask this same question this morning. I just bought a Lumia 929, and was bummed that the store isn't working. Just changed the date to December 3, 2017, and all is well. THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!

    It is working. Just change the date to 12/03/2017 (December 3) and see the magic happening. Thank you very much

    That's a strange way to report a bug is fixed and a work around is no longer needed.

    It would have been, if the bug was actually fixed. Downloading from the Store on WP8.1 still fails.

    You are right. MS's fix is being installed to affected phones. But they say it could take days before all are updated. When I posted it had been fixed, I hadn't read the fine print about the fix not being instantaneous for every phone.

    You got official word from Microsoft? Can you post a link to where you read that they were working on a fix?

    But based on other threads, it looks like MS just traded one problem for another.
