Windows 10: Error code 0x800F0922 when trying to play a game off the Epic Games store

I am being told to download and install this .Net 3.5 including 2.0 to play the game Control on my PC brand new, only built this year in March. Every time I try to download and install it I get the error code 0x800F0922. I have tried every method under the sun including Microsoft's which just led me in circles. Nothing works. I tried to talk to Microsoft and again just got sent in circles. My device is fully updated and nothing works.Thanks.

Hello RazvanUdudec,

1. Go to the place where you've installed launcher (usually c:\Program Files (x86)\Epic Games\)

2. Open the 'DirectXRedist' folder

3. Inside, there will be several .cab files (those are just simple archives)

4. Open those .cab files and extract JUST the .dll files, and put the wherever you want (could be the Desktop)

5. Now put those .dll files that you extracted inside the folder where your launcher is located (usually c:\Program Files (x86)\Epic Games\Launcher\Portal\Binaries\Win32\)

6. Launch the Epic Games Launcher and you should be good.
