Dear @AmmarBahasan,

Hope you are doing well. From the query I understand that you would like to block Microsoft Store using Cortex XDR. You can try achieving this by using exception profile. Create an exception profile and enable executable files in block mode and then add *\WinStore.App.exe in file and folder block list. Create the exception profile.

Once done please go to the policy rule and assign this exception profile to the endpoints you want to restrict use of Microsoft store on. Once done the end users shall be able to open the Microsoft store, however, is shall not load if the policy is assigned properly. Thank you.

If you feel this has answered your query, please let us know by clicking on "mark this as a Solution". Thank you.
