Microsoft Store Crashes & Windows 10 High Pitch Noise Bug
Microsoft Store Has Been Crashing This Week

Old High-Pitched Noise Bug Finally Fixed
This issue has been around since Windows 10 version 2004, and persisted through to versions 20H2 and 21H1. According to Microsoft, the issue only affected those using 5.1 sound and only affected certain apps. Microsoft explained it themselves, saying that “After installing KB5000842 or later updates, 5.1 Dolby Digital audio may play containing a high-pitched noise or squeak in certain apps when using certain audio devices and Windows settings.” But after releasing update KB5003690, the issue seems to be fixed. The update is optional, an users only need to click the “Check for updates” icon in the Windows Update settings page.
