    Windows 10 Apps not downloading or Updating, at all. ERROR CODE: 0x80073CF9


    About 1 week ago from now I made the mistake of peaking through the windows apps folder and changing permission for the folder and I think that has resulted in me having issues, but it is only for games, updating Skype, Spotify, Xbox apps, etc works. These apps are being installed on the C: drive, my boot drive. I wanted to install my games on my 1tb hard drive J: drive but when I try to install Forza m7 or h4 it has an error. 0x80073CF9. This morning I went ahead and deleted the Windows Apps folder in my J: drive all together thinking it would restart the downloads, nope didn't work. I never thought something so little could be so hard, to fix ,"that's what she said". But in all seriousness have tried all tips online on how to fix this but they don't work, don't even get me started on the wsreset.exe method, I spent 1 hour on that and it didn't work.


    If you have any tip or solutions that would be great!

    :)

    Error code 0x80073CF9 when installing apps from the Windows Store


    I'm receiving the following error when trying to install apps from the Windows Store on Windows 10. It doesn't occur with every program, which makes it extremely frustrating to debug. The Event Viewer is no help, as it provides the same cryptic messages:


    • Installation Failure: Windows failed to install the following update with error 0x80070490: Gears of War 4.
    • Installation Failure: Windows failed to install the following update with error 0x80073CF9: Gears of War 4.
    • Installation Failure: Windows failed to install the following update with error 0x80073CF9: Carcassonne.
    • Installation Failure: Windows failed to install the following update with error 0x80070490: Candy Crush Saga.
    • Installation Failure: Windows failed to install the following update with error 0x80073CF9: Candy Crush Saga.

    I've Googled this error and searched TenForums but found nothing to help. SFC /SCANNOW reports no errors, re-registering the Windows Store app does nothing, disabling BitDefender does nothing. Is any real help available, or do I have to file a scam report with PayPal since Microsoft is incapable of managing a simple software download?
