Thanks Comfort • You didn't answer to ' When you ran the Microsoft Apps troubleshooter what did it say at the end?' • Are you receiving and installing Windows Update packages w/o problem? • Has the problem you're experiencing started after you installed 'Sock Escort'? It would be great you desactive it for testing purpose and see if this allows Windows Store and its Apps to work as expected - I'm not saying you should get rid of that soft I'm Just trying to isolate the root cause of your problem. About SockEscort • I had a look at the that doesn't provide any information wrt what this software actually does. Apart from ' Windows x64 support' on the home page nothing seems to indicate that this soft is compatible with Windows 8. The documentation might say something about that and hopefully explain how to adjust settings to allow other applications using the Internet connection to work flawlessly.

• Searching the Web for 'SockEscort' I could read ' Redirecting network connections through a Socks server. Forwarding DNS'. • Another search with 'SocksEscort Windows 8' says ' Redirect connections on TCP / IP protocol for all applications in the operating system, WINDOWS, through a Socks server. Intercept DNS requests applications'.

Note that these extracts were below the hyperlinks on the search result pages but both links brought the home page of the so I could read more:-( Based on this information + the screenshots from the I'm under the impression this soft does a lot of things wrt to your Internet connection hence my question #2 and my recommendation of testing w/o it (#3). Hope this helps Cheers Lz.
