    Store downloads error 0x80073CFE

    I cannot download/update any apps from the store on this particular computer. It downloads 3.5mB and errors out with 0x80073CFE.

    I've done the wsreset and rebooted - error 0x80073CFE

    logged out of the microsoft account, clicked download to prompt login - error 0x80073CFE

    Reset the store through add/remove programs, rebooted - error 0x80073CFE

    Uninstalled store through powershell, rebooted, reinstalled through powershell, rebooted - error 0x80073CFE

    Created a new user account - error 0x80073CFE
    sfc is fine

    dism is fine

    using windows antivirus with no special rules or exceptions.

    nothing windows is blocked in firewall or hosts file.

    UAC is on

    Pin is set

    I used another computer that has the same microsoft account associated with it's product key and downloads/updates work fine.

    Any clues?

    w10pro 1909 up to date.

    Windows 10- Store Error 0x80073CFE

    I have tried all steps provided in the link. I have solved all problems found with dism using a ISO and have now performed a sfc with no integrity violations.

    But still, the original problem is there, Windows Store Error 0x80073CFE. Since no app can update, there are more apps now, 32 of them, with the same error.
