    Having trouble with downloading from the Windows store


    I'm trying to download the app, Microsoft Ultimate Word Games. I keep getting the message "Couldn't install. We'll retry shortly." It then retries the install, and throws that error again after a few seconds. It keeps repeating the same thing until I cancel the install. The error code that I get is: 0x80246019. I've tried running the troubleshooter but it says that it could not find anything. My computer is also up to date. I'm not in the insider program. And I have plenty of space available (about 100GB). Strangely enough, it seems like this is the only app doing this. I've tried a few other apps and they download perfectly. For whatever reason, this app seems to be the only one giving me trouble. Any help would be most appreciated.

    :)
