    I can't even synchronize the WSUS server. In SoftwareDistribution.log, I see messages like:

    2026-02-07 14:38:26.253 UTC	Error	WsusService.43	SoapUtilities.LogException	USS ThrowException: Actor = https://sws.update.microsoft.com/ServerSyncWebService/ServerSyncWebService.asmx, Method = ?, ID=00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000, ErrorCode=InternalServerError, Message=

   at System.Threading.ExecutionContext.Run(ExecutionContext executionContext, ContextCallback callback, Object state)
   at System.Threading.ThreadHelper.ThreadStart()

    On a client that does not use WSUS, I see the message "Windows Update Client failed to detect with error 0x80244022" in ReportingEvents.log.

    It seems that this is not just a problem with the MS Store.

    Hello my friends, under my constant paranoia, checking logs in the event viewer as usual, I also noticed the same thing. It seems to be a problem with Windows services, you can check it here: https://status.cloud.microsoft/
    Hope this helps
