Microsoft has released an update to correct this issue. To install the update, follow these steps:

Select the Start button in the lower left corner of the main screen and select Settings.

Select Update and Security > Check for Updates.

Select View optional updates, then select update KB5004476 from the list.

KB5004476

Select Download and Install.

When the update is complete, restart the device.

You should now be able to install, update and launch games.

Are you still in trouble?

Try deleting the Game Services registry keys and reinstalling the Game Services app on your Windows 10 device:

Right-click the Start button in the lower left corner of the main screen and select Windows PowerShell (Administrator).

From the Administrator: At the Windows PowerShell screen type the following command and press Enter:

Get-AppxPackage *gamingservices* -allusers | remove-appxpackage -allusers

In the same window, type the following commands and press Enter:

Remove-Item -Path "HKLM:\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\GamingServices" -recurse

Remove-Item -Path "HKLM:\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\GamingServicesNet" -recurse

Restart the device.

Right-click the Start button in the lower left corner of the main screen and select Windows PowerShell (Administrator).

From the Administrator: At the Windows PowerShell screen type the following command and press Enter:

start ms-windows-store://pdp/?productid=9MWPM2CQNLHN

Install the application on this page and select Yes when prompted for User Account Control (CCU).

Try installing or starting the game again.

Quite often a hard reboot will also resolve this issue, simply hold your finger on the on/off button for around 8-10 seconds (the light will go off) Then turn it back on.

I cant download minecraft dungeons from microsoft store despite me having xbox game pass ultimate for pc. I have reinstalled windows, and done like a billion things to attempt to fix it. 0x80073CF3 this is the error code and it says Wait a few minutes and try that again. The update failed. This means that there’s already an existing version of the game on your console or Windows 10 device.

I cant open

Hello @!

Apologies that you are facing such issues. However, If you haven't already, I suggest trying the steps outlined in our Troubleshoot game installations on Windows 10 and Error 0x80073CF3 occurs when you try to install a game on Xbox One or a Windows 10 device | Xbox Support articles to fix the issue.

Hi, that first link is dead and the second literally says "wait a few minutes and try again" and "uninstall and reinstall" when I can't install in the first place.

Having the EXACT same issue...

I rebooted, just to see if that would clear the store mess up and now, it only shows one download, that fails every time. It says Wait a few minutes, the update failed, Code: 0x80073CF3. I reported the problem, but for now, can't install it.
