Windows 10: Error Installing Sea Of Thieves Anniversary Edition on Dell Precision 7730...

I purchased the game Sea Of Thieves from Amazon and received a code to redeem in the Windows store. I successfully redeemed the code and showed the game in my library. When the program started to download, it would go for about 3-5 seconds and then fail. The error code that is given is Code: 0x80080206. I have reinstalled the Microsoft Store and still the same error. I have tried downloading the game from two different internet sources and same error. I've loaded the latest feature version of Windows 10 to see if that would help, but still the same error.

Anyone offer any suggestions or help so I can play the game I paid for?

Thank you!

Unable to Install Sea Of Thieves on Solid State Drive

I had Sea of Thieves installed on my harddrive, but the load times were slow so I wanted to switch it to my solid state drive. I took the following steps.

• Uninstalled Sea of Thieves
• Navigated to the microsoft store and selected install
• Selected C: drive (which is my ssd) as the install location
• After completing the download I get the error: "Couldn't install. We'll retry shortly".

I've attempted this twice with no luck. It's a large download so it takes a long time to retry, I'm hoping for an easy resolution to get this installed on my C: drive.

Thank you,

Josh

Hi HideTheHorizon,

I can understand the situation must be difficult for you when the Microsoft Store app doesn't work as it should.
