How to use the US Windows Store from Another Country
Press the Win + X keyboard combination, or right click in the bottom left hand corner of your screen to open the WinX menu, then launch the Control Panel.
Now change the Control Panel’s view to the Small icons view.
Then head into the Region settings.
