  1. Unable to download or update anything from Microsoft Store!! Error: 0x80072xF78


    Hello, I logged onto my computer today to play some video games with my friends, upon attempting to launch the game, I found that there been an error updating one of my games, I tried installing other apps from the store, and they all have the same error, code: 0x80072xF78. I've looked up many forums and Youtube videos and none of the solutions are helping at all. Can somebody please help me? I have not made any Hardware or Software changes to my PC. Running Windows 11, all up to date.Thanks in advance- Brendan

  3. unable to download itunes from microsoft store

    I am unable to download the itunes app on to my pc from the Microsoft store. I select itunes, I get to the itunes app page and click "download now." When I do this, it opens a new Microsoft Store window listing a whole bunch of "Essential Apps." I scroll down the list of "essential apps," find itunes again and select it, which brings me back to the same itunes download page I started with. But when I select "download now" it just opens up the "Essential Apps" window again. What am I doing wrong?

    Windows Version 1909 (OS Build 18363.1198)

    Windows Update/Microsoft Store erroring out

    Hello there!

    I've recently noticed issue with Microsoft Store/Windows Update service being unable to download anything.
    Microsoft Store downloads typically do not finish or wind up being interrupted by 0x80D03805 code, which formerly used to be 0x80072F8F before I performed in-place upgrade to a beta channel build via Media Creation Tool.
    Windows Updates stay at 0% indefinitely.

    Besides reinstalling Windows, I've tried pretty much everything out there suggested for this type of problem: changing DNS address, resetting WU services, following local tutorials as well - nothing helped, so I would appreciate any help with this.
