Windows 10: I've been seeing update errors x3 0x80070005 when updating Microsoft Store apps for several...

HiI'm running WIN 11 10.0.26120.3576 on a Dell 5630 Laptop, 13th Gen IntelR Core TM i7-1360P16.0 GB 15.7 GB usable. For several months, & a couple OS updates, I've been getting error 0x80070005 while trying to update 3 of 300 apps via the Microsoft Store. The same 3, Some Media Player, Apple Music & iTunes. All fault in the download/install process, which drops a banner "We're having trouble on our end ... we're trying to fix ... try again later."Error 0x80070005 is a very generic issue involving user credentials, security permissions, and so on. I found the Windows Update

Can't Update Apps From Windows Store Error 0x80070005

Hi, please do this as a matter of routine:
From an admin command prompt
[Windows key + X, click command prompt (admin)]
chkdsk C: /F
Your PC will need to restart.
Make sure the result is clear or fixed- else do not proceed.
Post back the result, which you can get after a restart as follows:

Can't Update Apps From Windows Store Error 0x80070005

I have several apps that refuse to update with the error 0x80070005. Some of the apps include Groove Music, Microsoft Photos and Films and TV. Here is what I have tried so far.

1- Checked the time, date, time zone and region is correct. User account control is enabled.

2- Run the WSReset.exe as administrator

3- Gain full control over packages folder using the advice here:

4- Control Panel/Troubleshooting/View All/Windows Store Apps/run troubleshooter. The troubleshooter did a few things and also ran WS reset and reported the Windows Store cache may be damaged.




I tried to uninstall and reinstall one app but it refused to reinstall so I had to use system restore to get it back. I am the only user logged on as the administrator.

Is there anything else I can try? Your advice would be appreciated.

Kind regards
Chris
