How to Change Microsoft Store Region in Windows 10

In this tutorial, we are going to see how to change Microsoft store region in Windows 10. Microsoft’s application store, the Windows Store, offers both free and paid programs. When you download a free program, it doesn’t matter what country you are in to download it; it works regardless of where your computer is located.

On the other hand, with paid programs, the situation is different. In fact, to buy an application, you will have to specify a billing address that includes the country and a payment method.

The country must correspond to the one associated with the payment card or any other payment method. If this is not the case, the purchase cannot be made.

On the Windows Store, there is no way to change the buyer’s country. This is automatically determined by the application based on the information found in the user’s account, and there is no option to change it.

The only solution is to change the country setting of Windows 10. To do this, follow the instructions below:
