Error 0x80073D05 when installing Xbox App (Windows 10)

I am unable to install the Xbox app (and therefore use my game pass I have paid for) as it gives me a: "Something unexpected happened. Code: 0x80073D05"

I have looked all over the internet, I have done a sfc /scannow - I have uninstalled and reinstalled the store via powershell, I am running out of ideas for a problem that seems unfixable now.

That's odd.

Probably is happening something with the app right now.

Hector, try to restore your PC's OS via the ISO image tool, using that tool you will be able to maintain your installed games and files, and the try to install it again, please.

Hello dear Gamer, first it's a pleasure to be able to help you today.

Hey Hector, how are you today? Hope you're well.

First, try to do a clean boot on your PC, and then try to install the app from here:

https://www.xbox.com/en-US/apps/xbox-app-for-pc

Clean restart on your PC, what that do is to prevent any 3rd party apps that might be blocking the download.

Right-click the Start button.

Click Search.

Type msconfig and hit Enter on your keyboard.

Click Services.

Click the checkbox next to Hide all Microsoft services.

Click Disable all.

Click Startup.

Click Open Task Manager.

Click any startup program you suspect might be interfering.

Click Disable. Repeat steps 9 and 10 for all startup programs.

Click the X to close Task Manager.

Click OK in the System Configuration window.

Restart your PC.

Once your PC restarts, only the essentials will boot. If you were having issues with a program or update, try to launch or install while in the clean boot environment. If the problem persists, you'll know that you don't have a software conflict and the problem lies elsewhere.

If the problem doesn't show up while in a clean boot, you can now attempt to find the offending program or service. The best way to do so is to repeat steps 1-5 above, but re-enable half of the services.

Hi,

Just tried all that. Didn't work in a clean boot, still the same issue. Thanks for trying.
