Even though it’s still trailing behind the competition, the Microsoft Store has more than a few nice exclusives. Purchasing games or applications closely resembles other similar services and everything is done in a matter of seconds. However, some users willing to spend some bucks on a game or two had issues with finalizing the purchase. Namely, they were met with the “We’re having trouble processing your purchase” error.

Microsoft Store won’t process payment

Fix Microsoft Store purchase processing issues

1. Reset Stores cache

Let’s start with the simplest solution which usually works. Of course, if you’re certain that everything is properly configured and the error is completely uncalled for. Microsoft Store is far from flawless, and its plagued by a whole plethora of issues. However, the temporary stall might be the cause for the in-store purchasing error, as it’s the case for so many problems.

Microsoft Store is a native Windows 10 app and works in the background all the time. This leads to pilling up data which, consequently, might follow with an error. Because of that, we suggest resetting Microsoft Store’s cache.

If you’re not sure how to do it, follow the steps we provided below:

 WSReset.exe and press Enter.

2. Log out and log in again

The second step is as obvious as they come. Nonetheless, an inexperienced user might panic and forget about it. Namely, if the system has issues with your active account, you might resolve this little stall by simply logging off and logging in again. Some users even advised logging with an alternative account and then going back to the original one.

Either way, this seemingly helped for the similar problem on Xbox Live. Since Microsoft Store is the same for all Microsoft devices, we can expect it to be a success on a Windows 10 PC as well.

3. Check your funds and re-establish a paying method

Expert Tip: Some PC issues are hard to tackle, especially when it comes to corrupted repositories or missing Windows files. If you are having troubles fixing an error, your system may be partially broken. We recommend installing Restoro, a tool that will scan your machine and identify what the fault is.

More times than not, the “We’re having trouble processing your purchase” error is a temporary occurrence. However, if the same message pop-ups every time you try purchasing something from the Store, there might be something else at hand. Firstly, we suggest checking your funds.

In addition, consider deleting you paying method (debit/credit card, PayPal, etc.) and establishing it again. This might take some time, but the paying method might get locked down due to a service error. You can do all of that, here.

4. Make sure region/time settings and pay account are properly set

As we go deeper into the possible causes list, it’s important that you come from a region which allows purchases. The rules for this vary, so there are some games or apps you’ll be able to obtain regardless of your geo-location. On the other hand, lot’s of games are not available globally, so make sure you’re able to get the game in the first place.

Also, you can change your region and time to match the account settings and payment options. Namely, your account credentials need to be set to the same location and ZIP code number as your debit/credit card. For example, you won’t be able to pay for a game with the foreign card.

5. Send the ticket to Microsoft Support

Finally, if none of the aforementioned solutions helped you address the “We’re having trouble processing your purchase” error, we suggest sending the ticket to Microsoft. The support should be able to check what’s exactly causing the problem. You might need to send a few screenshots, but the whole effort won’t take you more than 15 minutes.

You can report your issues and send inquiries, here.
