App updates won't download and install

so now there's an update that won't download, it just stops and gives a new error code 0x80073cf3. When you look this one up it says to uninstall so you can install the update but the problem is is there is no store app.

If it's a console update then it has to be downloaded on the internal hard drive.

Game & app updates will install to wherever your games & app are installed.

Hi,

Game updates can only be downloaded to the drive said game is installed to. If a drive is full or nearly full you won't be able to update the game.

For example: The Game And Apps screen shows total drive space across all storage. So, if you have say 5GB free on internal and 595GB on external, it will show 600GB.

If the game that needs to be updated is installed on the drive with only 5GB, but the update is 6GB, you would need to either free up space on the drive or move the whole game to a drive with free space in order to update it.

Power cycling won't fix this.

It did not ask me if I wanted to update Minesweeper. I have 2 updates pending for windows and they download but will not install. it says retry which I do but they still won't install.

Sometimes if games or apps won't update like that, I will just uninstall them completely and them reinstall them. This will install them with the new update included.
