Microsoft Flight Simulator won't install, Error Code: 0x800700E9

I solved the Issue but I can't pin it down what the solution was^^.

Things I done:

Updated Windows.

Updated windows store.

Services: (WIN+R -> services.msc)

Switched "Delivery Optimization" and "Background Intelligent Transfer Service" to automatic.

Group Policy Editor: (WIN+R -> gpedit.msc)

Computer Configuration > Administrative Templates > Windows Components > Delivery Optimization

Activated "Download mode" and switched to 1.

Restarted PC.

Today Microsoft Flight Simulator was upgraded and now it fails on startup with the same error code.

Hello Afruzu how are you?

My name is Ezequiel I'm an Independent Consultant.

What appears when you try to connect your internet on your Xbox? Are there any error codes or warnings?

Yes you can play this game offline, however you need to download content from it so you can play offline.

1-Open "My Games & Apps" on the Xbox console by choosing the "My Games & Apps" tile on the Xbox Dashboard or by opening the Xbox Guide and choosing the "My Games & Apps" option.
2-Find Microsoft Flight Simulator in the "Games" section of "My Games & Apps". Note: If you are installing or pre-installing Microsoft Flight Simulator, the game will immediately appear in the "Games" section and you can do this during installation.
3-Open the Microsoft Flight Simulator "More Options" menu by highlighting Microsoft Flight Simulator under "My Games & Apps" and pressing the "Menu" button on your Xbox controller.
4-In the Microsoft Flight Simulator "More options" menu, navigate to the "Manage games and add-ons" option and open it.
5-On the Microsoft Flight Simulator "Manage Games and Add-ons" screen, highlight and open "Microsoft Flight Simulator" on the right side of the screen.
In the "Microsoft Flight Simulator" menu, navigate to and select the "Manage installation to (storage device)" option.
7-On the Microsoft Flight Simulator "Manage Installation" screen, navigate to the "World - offline mode" add-on in the Microsoft Flight Simulator base game. Note: Selecting the "World - Offline Mode" add-on will install it, while unchecking it will either uninstall the add-on or prevent it from being installed.
8-After making the changes, navigate and select the "Save Changes" option on the right side of the screen.
9-Your Xbox will automatically update the Microsoft Flight Simulator installation in the background.
