Latest store update always has 1 next to arrow but no update availble

Not sure when the latest store app update came through, sometime this week but only jus back from hols. Noticed that when checking for updates it now always has a 1 next to the arrow indicating one is available for some app. But there is nothing showing, anyone else notice this? If you manually check get updates and then wait for cycle to finish. Then click on another tab in the app such as home and it'll then always appear. But clicking on it yields no pending updates or updates in motion

Seen this on both our machines across all user accounts

Same thing is occurring on my machine as well. Just started recently. Can make the "1" disappear by resetting the Store App, but it always keeps coming back.

Thanks for feeding back I appreciate it. Its pretty annoying but I guess its just aesthetic and not anything harming. MS at their best again!!!

Yes, I have that as well, or rather did have until a couple of hours ago. I just run the WSReset.exe
As in here:

Has this magically fixed for anyone? My anniversary update (v1607) machine still shows this annoying '1' to this day. Despite numerous checks for updates in the store app. It's still getting other app updates just fine but this still remains. It's present across all the five family user accounts on the pc (3 admin & 2 kids accounts)

however it no longer shows on our other pc which runs creators v1703.

Still have the problem on my 1703 machine. If your problem went away upgrading to 1703, maybe I should try a Win 10 repair.

No it didn't go away upgrading. The pc it went away on was already on creators. I just thought maybe the version of windows made a difference but I guess not

There are at least two other threads on this topic: Windows Store Update App Number Incorrect - Windows 10 Forums and Question about Windows 10 Store Solved - Windows 10 Forums. Neither appears to have a fix that consistently works.

I have tried them both HERE...the fixes. If wsreset.exe doesn't work then try the registry edit. On some of my PCs one worked while the other would not. So try wsreset.exe first and make sure, with either fix, you restart your PC. It doesn't say you have to for the wsreset fix but on my machine that it worked on it took when it restarted. The registry fix will download all the bloatware again and it will change the Store icon, at least it did on my taskbar.
