  1. Error code 0x80070005 on Gaming Services and any Xbox app game downloads


    To preface this, I have a pretty fresh installation of Windows. In general I just play games on Steam and Battle.net. I haven't messed with registry or anything that I imagine would usually cause errors like this.

    I am getting this error ( 0x80070005) which is Access Denied when attempting to install any game through the Xbox app. It's not actually through the Xbox app, it starts a download in the Microsoft Store app in the background. Regardless, the games need Gaming Services installed to work, and the installation will fail with this error every time.

    Some solutions state that changing your default store install location back to C: drive will fix this error. It is already defaulted to C: so this is not a solution.

    I have tried countless solutions which I will paste some links below:

    I am not downloading Sea of Thieves but a lot of people who had this issue in the past were trying to play that game. A lot of responses may say that it is Rare's error (the developer of the game). It is not a game-specific issue as any game will provide this error and the required Gaming Services will not install in the first place. Other Store apps install just fine, including the Xbox app itself.

    Please let me know if you have any other ideas on a solution.

  2. Error 0x80070005 while downloading games

    Hi! I subscribed to the Xbox Game Pass (PC) on June and I was able to download any game I wanted. After the second week, everytime I try to download most of the games I get the error 0x80070005 and I can't find a solution to it. I've tried a lot of different
    things, I even deleted microsoft store from my pc to download it again and I couldn't download it again. First time I contacted the support, I was able to download one game using the "wsreset" command. Yesterday I contacted the support again and they told
    me to install games from browser to the app but it doesn't work with every game. There's games like Kingdom Come or Void Bastards that just doesn't start download via browser and I get the error 0x80070005 when I try to download it from the Xbox App.

    Please, help me!!

    Thanks for your attention.

    Downloading games on the PC with Xbox Game Pass Ultimate gives error code 0x80070005

    I'm trying to install new games through the Microsoft store but it provides the error message 0x80070005 whenever I do, the store will update already downloaded apps so I'm not sure what the problem is.

  4. Error code 0x80070005 on Gaming Services and any Xbox app game downloads

    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?
