I've attempted to disable the Windows Store using the Policy Editor. After restarting several times, it starts up and runs constantly anyway - proof of Policy Editor:

Does anyone know of a reason this wouldn't be working or another way to disable the store? It's consuming a ton of my system resources constantly.

The policy only applies to Windows 10/11 Education and Enterprise editions. However, a suspended application that is NOT running and/or suspended, uses little to no resources. If you want to disable Windows Store on Windows 10 Professional or Windows 11 Professional you will upgrade to a supported edition.

Not supported on Windows 10 Pro, starting with version 1511. For more info, see Knowledge Base article #3135657
