Windows Store Apps Trouble Shooter does not Recognize that I am signed in

I was trying to launch games that I have installed from the Microsoft/Xbox Store on Windows 10 Precision 5520 laptop and all of my Microsoft games gave an error when I launch them that I am not connected to the internet even though I am. So I thought maybe if I download the beta Xbox app and try to launch them from there it might work. So when I added the app to my download queue in the Microsoft App store, it hangs on "Acquiring Licenses" and then eventually goes to an error, the "more details" button shows that it is an error code: 0x80072ee2.

Through googling that I found some suggestions to try the "Windows Store Apps troubleshooter." When I try this is it will eventually stop on a screen asking me to sign in to a Microsoft account with a link to open the account settings. I click that and see that I am signed in. I tried signing out then back in. Nothing seems to work, help would be much appreciated, with my goal to be able to eventually launch my games again.

For error 0x80072ee2, do two things:

1. Windows 10, Start, Settings, Apps, scroll down for Microsoft Store, Advanced, and reset the app. Restart and test.

2. If you are continuing to have issues, work through the corrective settings in the second answer post in the thread below:

Quote "Method 1: Reset the store cache by following the steps below and check if the issue is resolved.

Resetting Windows store will clear, and empty the cache without changing account settings or deleting the installed apps. It is usually located in the %SYSTEM% folder in the PC.

Open Run command by pressing Windows Key + R. Type wsreset.exe and press Enter. Open Windows Store and check if the app can now be installed/purchased on your device.

Method 2: If the issue persists, disable proxy settings by following the steps below and check if the issue is resolved.

Method 3: Create another administrator user account by referring to Set up accounts on Windows 10 article and check if similar issue persists.

Added point:

If the above does not work, then you need to try a Windows 10 Repair Install.
