My games won't download all the way on pc

Thank you for your response.

Have you tried pausing the install?

Use Windows Troubleshooter
Go to Settings > Update & Security > Troubleshoot > Additional troubleshooters, and run the Windows Store Apps troubleshooter.

Check for System File Corruption
Run the System File Checker by opening Command Prompt as an administrator and typing sfc /scannow. This can repair corrupted system files that might be affecting the download.

I shall be here for your response. -Lumie

Hi there Make M.

I am Lumie and I would love to assist you today.

I am so sorry you are having issues with your Minecraft download.

When facing the error code 0x87E00005 while trying to download games like Minecraft on your PC, it can be frustrating. This error code typically indicates issues related to network connectivity, storage, or system conflicts. Here’s a comprehensive guide to troubleshoot and resolve the issue:

Check Network Connection
Ensure your internet connection is stable. Consider using a wired connection for better stability.
Run a speed test to ensure you have sufficient bandwidth for downloading large files.
Restart your router to clear any temporary network issues.
Sometimes, changing the DNS settings to Google DNS (8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4) or OpenDNS can help resolve download issues.

Ensure Sufficient Disk Space
Make sure you have enough free space on your drive to accommodate the game. Minecraft requires at least a few gigabytes.
Delete unnecessary files or uninstall unused programs to free up space.

Disable Background Applications
Some background applications can interfere with downloads. Close apps that might consume bandwidth or system resources.
Use the Task Manager to end processes that are not required.

Update Windows and Drivers
Ensure your operating system is up-to-date. Go to Settings > Update & Security > Windows Update and check for updates.
Update network drivers and other essential drivers through Device Manager or your computer’s manufacturer website.

Clear Temporary Files and Cache
Use the Disk Cleanup tool to clear temporary files. Search for “Disk Cleanup” in the Start menu.
Clearing the Microsoft Store cache might help. Open Command Prompt as an administrator and run wsreset.exe.

Check Microsoft Store Settings
Ensure the region and language settings in the Microsoft Store match your actual location. This can be adjusted in the Settings app under Time & Language.
Make sure the Microsoft Store itself is updated. Open the Store, go to the three dots (menu), and check for updates.

Reinstall Microsoft Store
Powershell Command: If issues persist with the Microsoft Store, consider reinstalling it. Open PowerShell as an administrator and run the following command:

Get-AppxPackage *WindowsStore* | Remove-AppxPackage
Get-AppxPackage -allusers *WindowsStore* | Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register "$($_. InstallLocation)\AppXManifest.xml"}

Verify Game Installation Path
Ensure that the game is being installed in a path with proper read/write permissions. Avoid special characters in the installation path.

Run Troubleshooters
Use the built-in troubleshooters to diagnose and fix issues. Go to Settings > Update & Security > Troubleshoot and run relevant troubleshooters for Windows Store Apps and Network Adapter.

Check for System File Corruption
Run the SFC tool to check for system file corruption. Open Command Prompt as an administrator and run:

sfc /scannow

Reset Windows Store
Go to Settings > Apps > Apps & Features, find the Microsoft Store, and select Advanced options. Click on Reset.

I hope this helps. -Lumie

I'm selling my Xbox soon, at which point it'll be PC all the way. I won't be duped into buying a "gaming system" (which is basically a 3 year old PC) again.

Still not able to download on console or PC, won't even show my purchased games. This all started after the last crash a couple weeks ago.
