Can't download Sea of Theives

Theo Lind · Jul 4, 2022

I bought Sea of Thieves for about 4-6 days ago, after a new update came out i couldnt download the update. I tried to reinstall the game, and that made it even worse. I searched for hours and there was no apparent fix that worked for me. I went so far as to reset my whole PC just so i could download it, but i still couldnt.

It leads me to think that when i bought game pass ultimate and it got cancelled because something weird happened with xbox, that Sea of Theives thought i never bought it and therefore wont let me download it. So as any reasonable person would do i bought game pass again, just this time not ultimate. But it still doesnt work.

I personally think that Xbox thinks that i dont own the game and therefore wont let me download it. And i also get this error: "0x80073cf0". Of course after getting this error i did research and did every fix available. But of course nothing worked. I've had this issue for about three days and it just gets more and more frustraiting.

That's an strange possibility Theo

But to double check this, you can try sign with your account on another PC (can be a friend's PC and see if you're able to install the game from there)

None of those worked either. And the Windows 11 Installer just told me I can't download it and doesnt give me a reason. I'm really stumped on this issue, but as I said my ongoing theory is that when Xbox refunded my Ultimate Game Pass it mistook my bought Sea of Thieves for one only played on with

Game Pass.
