- Launch powershell , and run the following command

Expected behavior

Environment
[winget --info]

Windows: Windows.Desktop v10.0.19043.1023

@TechWatching I'm guessing this may be a challenge with translation of the strings in the message.
@TechWatching are you logged into the Microsoft Store with your Microsoft Account (MSA) on this machine?
Yes I am logged in with my Microsoft Account on the Microsoft Store of this machine, even if the user logged in to my session is another account (azure ad / professional account). Could this be a problem ?
This looks like it is related to the account used between the Windows Package Manager and the experimental store implementation. We're still working through the edge cases here. I've marked this external as it currently isn't something that we can resolve in the Windows Package Manger client. As we get closer to being able to have stable/released store support this will be an issue that must be resolved.
@TechWatching
We've published the v1.1 release candidate and updated our troubleshooting guide.
Can you confirm if this is still happening?
Dear @denelon,
Unfortunately, the issue seems to remain in this new release.
I get the same error when installing Rufus from msstore. For info, I'm using a local account on Windows.

Thanks for your help :+1:
@SuperITMan thank you for confirming. I've reached out to a few more folks internally to see if I can help isolate the cause.

In Windows 10 it was possible to connect to the store with a professional account but it's not possible anymore on windows 11. If not connected it's not possible to defnie payment options, so I guess this is why we get this error.

Ping! Please keep this open
@SuperITMan I removed the "Needs-Author-Feedback" label so the bot shouldn't try to close the issue.
We've fixed the bug requiring an MSA to be logged into the Microsoft Store in Windows Package Manager 1.3 preview and Windows Package Manager 1.3 Release Candidate. Is this still happening?

Hi ! Any update about that ? I'm trying to install Company portal with Winget but it failed because no bank account too
@D0wn3r
Are you logged into the Microsoft Store with an account?
If you are, do you get the same error message if you log out of the store?
@denelon Yes for both question and I tried on 2 differents computers and get same error. My version is v1.2.11601
Thanks for confirming. I've reached out to the team to see if we can isolate what causes this particular error.
The bug was fixed in the 1.3 version for getting packages without an MSA logged into the store. Could you try with one of the latest clients? The latest version 1.31741 is currently our release candidate build.
@denelon How to upgrade to this version please ?
You can just open the MSIX bundle from our releases page.
Thank you very much @denelon, it works on my computer without being logged. I will try on my other computer that is AD joined registered to see.
It works perfectly ! Nice job
This issue can be closed I guess
I'm going to keep it open as I would like to understand what causes that specific error. We may run into it again.
Hi all, I'm having the same error while trying to install the company portal app as of today on a updated windows 11 computer. I manage my Azure AD / Endpoint and we are trying to install it with powershell but we got that error.
here's the command I ran: winget install --id "9WZDNCRFJ3PZ" --exact --source msstore --accept-package-agreements --accept-source-agreements
Thanks
Update from my previous comment: Here's the error I'm getting running winget v1.3.1741:
An unexpected error occurred while executing the command: 0x80070520 : Une ouverture de session spécifiée n'existe pas. Elle est peut-être déjà terminée.
should translate to : a specified logon session does not exist. it may already have been terminated
You can just open the MSIX bundle from our releases page.
Perfect ! after updating , I can install packages that I was unable to due to "no store account found"

I see that the issue will become stale should I open my own issue cause I could provide feedback if needed since I have the same issue.
Thanks

cc @Rolodo: You should because your issue is a bit different.
