Windows Update is disabled. You can repair Windows Update by running the Windows Update troubleshooter in Settings. Code: 0x80070422

I tired it 2 times but it didn't work. On trying to update apps, "acquiring licence" appears and then afterwards "error: see details" appears. After clicking on the error detail this message shows up "Windows Update
is disabled. You can repair Windows Update by running the Windows Update troubleshooter in Settings. Code: 0x80070422 "

 

Repairing Windows XP can Break Windows Update

Microsoft/Windows Update Program Manager Nate Clinton has revealed that repairing a Windows XP installation using the Windows XP CD can potentially lead to users being unable to install updates when using the latest version of Windows Update. The problem, which does not appear to be widespread, occurs because the Windows XP CD replaces all system files, including those of Windows Update. Because the latest version of Windows Update uses a file which is not present on the Windows XP CD this causes a registry mismatch which can result in Windows Updates failing. So if you have recently run a repair install on Windows XP it is recommended that you either take a look at KB article 943144, check here for a workaround or contact Microsoft.
