    Cannot download game after uninstalling


    So recently I uninstalled The Outer Worlds from gamepass to help resolve an issue but when I try to reinstall the game, the progress bar fills up instantly and still shows the "install" button. I'm not sure if the files are on my pc and game pass detects
    them, but I am unable to play the game. I can install any other gamer just fine, but installing The Outer Worlds does nothing.

    :)

    Some have reported that some games downloads will get the 0x80070005 error if you are not currently running Xbox (Beta) or the Store as your system Administrator, while others say you have to specifically open the App as a local Administrator (as
    in, a PC user not logged in to a Microsoft account) and only log in to Xbox (Beta) once it has opened. While neither of these methods fixed our particular issue, there certainly seems to be enough evidence around that the method may work.

    To check your Administrator privileges or to sign in as a local administrator, head to Start > Settings > Accounts > Your info. There's an option to sign in as a local administrator here.
    Warning — make sure you've saved everything you need to save, as this will log out the main user account.

    To ensure that you are running the Store or the Xbox (Beta) App as an Administrator, search for either program in the Search bar, right click on the correct result and hit "Run as administrator". Allegedly, if you have managed to download and start the
    affected games for the first time, you should be able to return to your normal account and continue playing.

    Just an update to this. I didn't try to download any other games and assumed it was related to Fallout exclusively.

    I am not able to download any games at all. Same error code

    OK I have solved it try this:

    1. Right-click the Start button in the lower-left corner of the main screen, and then select Windows PowerShell (Admin).
    2. In the Administrator: Windows PowerShell screen, type the following command and press Enter:

      get-appxpackage Microsoft.GamingServices | remove-AppxPackage -allusers
    3. In the same window, type the following command and press Enter:

      start ms-windows-store://pdp/?productid=9MWPM2CQNLHN
    4. Install the app on that page, and select Yes when you receive the User Account Control (UAC) prompt.
    5. Restart your device, and try to install the game again.
    If this fails to install above do this:
