I'm on a fresh W11 pro install and I noticed the store will randomly keep showing updates on apps that are already on the latest version, at first it was just doing it with media player now it just fills up the whole update list with basically every app.

They'll download but they won't show under recent updates, I tried signing in and out, repairing then resetting the store, clearing the cache but it keeps doing it. Any other ideas how to stop it from doing this?

Thank you for the help, I ended up reinstalling the store through powershell and then running your script and so far so good.
