  1. Minecraft Launcher Error Code 0x80070005: How do I fix it?


    When I try to open the Minecraft Launcher it immediately opens to a screen that says "Something went wrong launching your game." and the error code 0x80070005. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling the app. I have also tried repairing the app in settings. I haven't played Minecraft in over a year and I want to get back into it but it won't let me. I don't know if I may have done something accidently to my computer over this time that has caused this but I am at a point where I don't know what else to do. I attached a screenshot of what I see when I try to open the app.

    Minecraft Launcher Installation Application [Error code 0x80070005]

    I have downloaded MinecraftInstaller.exe via minecraft.net on my Windows 10 Home computer (PC). Am logged into the Microsoft Store account. I have checked license box and clicked 'install' button. After that the application needs my administrator approve for "host process for windows service" from verified Microsoft Windows. Then there is screen with text "something went wrong", "couldn't install apllication 0x80070005". I checked forums, my problem is diffrent that install bar doesn't even start :

    https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/all/minecraftlauncher-installation-error-0x80070005/c5edf005-5a78-45d2-8cf7-694b530937e2

    yet I tried solutions listed in link above.

    Firstly, the permissions in AppData\Local of the Packages folder have been ensured that all the users listed have their full control.
    Secondly, I've tried more steps:

    Solution 1 - Run Windows App Troubleshooter

    no change.

    Solution 2 - Reset Windows Store through Command Prompt

    no change.

    Solution 3 - Re-register All Store apps

    no change.


    None work, as the error code still appears. Installation does not work.

    There is also one thing i have to notice: downloading Minecraft from Microsoft Store doesn't work as well.
    The description for all the files shows error. There was a descriptions of error details that showed:
    Code: 0x803FB107 for Minecraft: Java & Bedrock Edition for PC.
    Code: 0x80070005 for Minecraft: Java Edition

    Code: 0x80070005 for Minecraft for Windows

    Code: 0x80070005 for Gaming Service (am translating titles from my native language so it may have different name)

    and

    Code: 0x80070005 for Minecraft Launcher

    Minecraft+Launcher Installation Error 0x80070005

    Bought Minecraft + launcher in the Microsoft store on my laptop. (Lenovo Laptop)
    I press install and the launcher is installed however the actual game does not and it displays Error code 0x80070005. It downloads up to 90 percent then stops. I have Windows 10

    I have tried un-installing and re-installing, restarting my device and could not get results.
