    MS Store my library empty

    Seems fixed now, all my apps are again visible in my library in MS store. Must be something Microsoft fixed on their servers, as others have had this problem also.

    Anyone else have this problem lately? When I check my library in MS store it doesn't show any apps at all. It used to list all my apps before. Same problem on all my devices on the same account.
