    Cannot install updates or Store apps, error code 0x80072F8F

    All this looks alright, except the SFC /SCANNOW command returned a note about there being some corrupt files - I have the log saved if (part of?) it would be useful?

    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?

    Have you ever modified your HOSTS file or run any 3rd party utilty that may have done so?
    By default it looks like this:

    Check UAC is enabled
    and try
    Re-register Microsoft Store app in Windows 10

    Then try the Store download and updates again.
