    Error 0x80072F8F when playing games on Windows 10


    This morning, when I booted up my Windows 10 computer and tried to play Microsoft Sudoku, I got a message that I couldn't connect to XBox; the message listed the error 0x80072F8F--couldn't connect to XBox. I checked my internet--it's working--and I ran sfc /scannow--errors were found and fixed--but I still have the problem. I've also run the Windows Store App Troubleshooter, but it didn't find any problems. Furthermore, I played the game on Wednesday without any problems. So far, all I've seen that isn't XBox console-specific involves resetting the Store, but that didn't help. How do I proceed

    :)

    "This step may not be needed for Windows 8."

    I wish Ramesh would revise this.

    Cannot install updates or Store apps, error code 0x80072F8F

    Puzzling. Tends to suggest permissions errors or other corruption.

    As a matter of routine, please run these basic checks.
    a. Check your disk e.g.
    HD Tune (free) Health and Error scan tabs (e.g. from Softpedia).
    b. If ok, run
    chkdsk c: /scan
    from an admin command or Powershell prompt
    c. if ok, run
    SFC /SCANNOW
    similarly

    Report the summary results.

    What is the status of these services?
