(Microsoft Store + exe) Error whilst downloading new XBOX Application

Hi all,

I need the XBOX app for a couple of my games and whilst I've got xbox game bar and xbox console companion now microsoft need me to download the XBOX app. *chuckle

When I downloaded it through the microsoft store I get this error code: 0x80070005. So, I downloaded it from Xbox App for Windows PC | Xbox - no use.



I believe there is no way to download these games without the xbox app?

I'm on Windows 10 21H2 Home Edition Up to date

Error 0x80070005 when trying to download anything from Microsoft Store

Hello, yesterday I attempted to download Sea of Thieves via Game Pass Ultimate from the Microsoft Store.

However, the download would give an error, code 0x80070005, after a few seconds following the "acquiring license" stage of the download.

I've retried downloading the game multiple times, attempted to download other apps like Xbox Beta, and have searched for a solution online for several hours, but nothing that others have suggested so far seems to work.

In fact, I even tried to download Xbox Beta from the Xbox website, but I was given error 0x80070005.

How can I fix this error?

 

Unable to download certain games on Xbox App or Microsoft games store

Hi there,

I am trying to download No Man's Sky onto my computer via both the microsoft and xbox gaming app. I am able to download other games (Sea of Theives, Moonlighter) with no issue, but others (such as no mans sky) either do nothing (when trying in microsoft
app) or Error code 0x00000001 (Xbox store).

Steps I have done to troubleshoot:

1. Uninstalled and reinstalled both stores

2. Reparied and reset both apps from apps settings

3. Uninstalled Xbox app and tried to download from microsoft store

4. Went into services and ensured all xbox services are running

- I have 2 instances of Gaming services. One is running and the other gives error code 31 when trying to start it

5. I have reset gaming services and the app downloader from settings

6. I have restarted my pc many times

7. I have fully updated windows

8. I have peformed a repair install of windows

Nothing works. All other forms and questions I have seen only seem to generate the generic responses of

1. Restart your PC

2. Reset the app

3. Update windows

4. Repair install

I have followed all of these steps and still cannot properly access services. Can you please suggest any other approaches to fixing this error?

Many thanks,

Aaron
