    I turned on my workstation today and suddenly it is asking to be activated again. I think this came after a big update as I am also getting this strange error on every app that it can't access my location had to turn the error off in settings, as there is no reason ever for an app to know my location.My copy of windows came on a pre-built system. I have tried clicking the trouble shooter and it just says to buy a new copy of windows form the store.I have tried loading the store, apps seem to install fine, so the store is working. Most searching for this code in google finds errors in the sto

  2. Unable to open Windows Store: The error code is 0x80072EFD

    I have the common problem with the store with the above error code.

    I have done some of the steps listed in other threads. I cannon find these threads again as Searching is extremely difficult in windows 10 as there is no browser history.

    Can anybody suggest how to fix it beyond the basic steps?

    Running "Type wsreset.exe and press Enter." did nothing or didn't work.

    Another step listed was to check the latest video card driver. How is this done in Windows 10?

    How do you drill down to internet/advanced options in windows 10? Again very easy in previous version, very difficult in windows 10.

    original Title: The error code is 0x80072EFD, in case you need it.

    Edge - does not update - error code 7: 0x80072EFD — system level

    Yesterday and today I have been trying to update Edge. Both on VM and host, the 'Check for updates' runs for a while (checking) but ends with an error. " An error occurred while checking for updates: Unable to connect to the Internet. If you use a firewall, please allow list MicrosoftEdgeUpdate.exe. (error code 7: 0x80072EFD — system level). " Disabled Microsoft Defender firewall : makes no difference The MicrosoftEdgeSetup.exe can not connect with Internet, however, everything is in order.
