I purchased my 15 inch Spectre last Saturday and I've noticed that several of the apps bundled by HP is not installing as of today. I've refreshed/wiped clean the system several times plus ensured updated the system, however as you can see in the screenshot the apps still won't update nor can I uninstall them. Thoughts, ideas?

It's great to have you back and your patience is greatly appreciated.
After reviewing your post thoroughly, don't worry as I have a few other suggestions which should help you resolve this issue.
Let's try these steps here:
- Open the Windows Store app
- Click on the account logo in the upper-right corner of the app, then click on your account name
- Click on you account name in the new box, then click Sign out
- Click on the icon in the upper-right corner again, then click Sign in and choose your account name again
Reset the Store Cache: If that does not get the Store working again, close out of the app, then try resetting the Store cache:
1. Press the Win+R keys to open the Run dialog.
2. Type WSReset.exe, and click/tap on OK.
3. The Store and a command prompt will now open without any message. The command prompt will automatically close when the Store cache has been reset.
I hope this should help. Let me know how it goes for further assistance.
Take care now and do have a fabulous week ahead. 🙂

Thanks for the response Jeet_singh, I've tried all those things and none have worked. I'm able to install any app from the store and the store is showing to update the other app on the laptop.
