Game wont load, stuck at "A Pirates Life" image

  • I launch through MS Store and I played on Friday night and then did the update from Saturday and played all day yesterday (Sunday). However, today (Monday) when I try to load the game, it just sits the initial application loading screen (screenshot below).

    I've reset the MS Store apps, cleared cached, rebooted countless times, uninstalled and re-installed the game completely and updated Windows 10 but there is never any change.

    I'm also not seeing it as an application in Task Manager.

    I really hate the MS Store and not having anyway to verify files and at this point I have no idea what to do. It wasn't an issue with a game update or Windows update as neither happened between it working and not working.

    What's the game doing at this point when it launches this window before it actually loads the game?

    What else can I do?

    Wow, thanks! I can't believe I didn't run into that, I was looking at the Windows 10 troubleshooting one.

    Fix #4 fixed this for me and I don't understand why lol I hate the MS Store so much.

    Thanks!
