    Can't open Windows Sandbox Error 0x80070002

    Microsoft now list a known issue:


    https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/win...903#456msgdesc


    Windows Sandbox seems fragile on 1903 for a bunch of reasons; mine won't start with a different error code.

    Feedback Hub reports for "Windows Sandbox won't start" mention about 25 different error codes experienced.

    Sandbox not starting after May Update 2021 - Error 0x80070020

    Error 0x80070020 updating to version 1709

    I'm getting the same error code as above. I'm not running any .iso. The error reads - There were problems installing some updates, but we'll try again later. If you keep seeing this and want to search the web or contact support for information, this may help: 2018-05 Cumulative Update for Windows 10 Version 1709 for x64-based Systems (KB4103727) - Error 0x80070020.

    I think what happened was that the update was downloading and stopped at 74% downloaded. So, I went away for 30 minutes and came back and it was still stuck on 74% downloaded. Then, I rebooted, thinking it might help. It didn't help. Any suggestions?
