Troubleshooting topics for Microsoft Store for Business. ## Can't find apps in private store + The private store for your organization is a page in Microsoft Store app that contains apps that are private to your organization. After your organization acquires an app, your Store for Business admin can add it to your organization's private store. Your private store usually has a name that is close to the name of your organization or company. If you can't see your private store, there are a couple of things to check: - **No apps in the private store** - The private store page is only available in Microsoft Store on Windows 10 if there are apps added to your private store. You won't see your private store page with no apps listed on it. If your Microsoft Store for Business admin has added an app to the private store, and the private store page is still not available, they can check the private store status for the app on **Product & services - Apps**. If the status under **Private store** is **Add in progress**, wait and check back. diff --git a/store-for-business/update-microsoft-store-for-business-account-settings.md b/store-for-business/update-microsoft-store-for-business-account-settings.md index f5df17e875..e07e032864 100644 --- a/store-for-business/update-microsoft-store-for-business-account-settings.md +++ b/store-for-business/update-microsoft-store-for-business-account-settings.md @@ -10,18 +10,20 @@ author: cmcatee-MSFT manager: scotv ms.topic: conceptual ms.localizationpriority: medium -ms.date: 07/21/2021 +ms.date: 05/24/2023 --- # Update Billing account settings > [!IMPORTANT] -> The retirement of Microsoft Store for Business and Microsoft Store for Education has been postponed.
