Repair of the Windows store certificate
It appears that the error “server has not registered with DCOM within the required timeout” can also be caused by a certification of Windows Store applications. Some users were able to solve the problem by troubleshooting problems related to the Windows store. If this is the underlying cause of the problem, using Windows Store application troubleshooting will automatically replace the incorrect certificate.
Here is a quick guide to using troubleshooting for Windows Store applications:
- Press Windows + R to open a runtime window. Type “control.exe /name Microsoft.Troubleshooting” and press Enter to open Windows Troubleshooting.
- Scroll down to find and solve other problems, select Windows Store Apps, then click Run Troubleshooter.
- Wait until the scan is complete, then follow the on-screen instructions to apply the correction to the Windows Store certificate.
