Hi there,

I am getting the following error and don't really have a clue why...

Found the reason, my user folder was "Vasil Enchev" (Not my choosing, windows does that when you sign in during setup) So apparently, space in this folder is bad news. I created a new user and now everything works. I will leave this issue open because I think it is something that should be fixed to avoid this happening to other poor souls who signed in during windows setup.

Workaround: Avoid spaces in paths used by electron-windows-store
