Windows 10: Error Code 0x87E00005 Windows 10 Store Games Do Not Install

I am unable to install any games (and I just bought one) off the Windows Store on ONE of my PCs. I am able to install apps like Amazon Music, Audible, Xbox Game Bar, Angry Birds 2, and others. However the triple A type games like Age of Empires Definitive and Outer Worlds I am not.


The game tries to download, goes from pending to download and just sits the for about 15 minutes before kicking up this error code. All searches say this error code pertains to Xbox consoles but this is a Windows 10 machine running windows store.


My steps:


- WSRESET about a million times

- Fully removed Windows Store using PowerShell Admin

- Reinstalled Windows Store using PowerShell


Run back and select to install The Outer Worlds, download now went from Pending to Acquiring License to Downloading.. got to 4% stops and kicks up this error code. Anytime I try to restart this download I have the same problem, Error Code 0x87E00005.


I do not know if this is related to ALL of this but my Office 365 on this machine ALSO refuses to update. Just spins endlessly, if I try to download it again from Office site it kicks back a different error and doesn't download. There is also one KB that refuses to install (all others do) SQL 2014 Server cumulative (I run SQL express here for UPS Worldship). I really never have issues with this machine and updates -- I have ALWAYS had intermittent issues with this machine and Windows Store albeit its been 2 years since I last full removed/full installed the Windows Store and its been magic since and now this.
