Windows 10: Cannot download the Xbox App for PC or anything from the Microsoft store. Error code 0x80072F8F

I cannot download the Xbox app for PC and the Microsoft store is not letting me download anything, i can click install on apps but they will not download . I have tried so many troubleshooting options none have worked. My windows is up to date and i did a recovery option to install windows fresh on my PC. The message i receive when attempting to download the Xbox app is, "Looks like something went wrong we weren't able to install the app 0x80072F8F.

All this looks alright, except the SFC /SCANNOW command returned a note about there being some corrupt files - I have the log saved if (part of?) it would be useful?

If you haven't already- but do it again anyway.. unset and set time to synch automatically.




Reset Advanced Settings:




Have you ever modified your HOSTS file or run any 3rd party utilty that may have done so?
By default it looks like this:




Check UAC is enabled
and try
Re-register Microsoft Store app in Windows 10

Then try the Store download and updates again.

Puzzling. Tends to suggest permissions errors or other corruption.

As a matter of routine, please run these basic checks.
a. Check your disk e.g.
HD Tune (free) Health and Error scan tabs (e.g. from Softpedia).
b. If ok, run
chkdsk c: /scan
from an admin command or Powershell prompt
c. if ok, run
SFC /SCANNOW
similarly
