Problems with xbox game pass pc beta (error 080070005)

Hi thanks for the reply, I already tried that, created a separate admin login and even tried to install it on a different hard drive but it doesn't work, but I do think it might be related to some administration privileges as I can install metal slug and
astroneer, both of which it doesnt say that i need admin privileges on their page, still I can not figure out how to solve the problem

Hi,

Sorry for the delay responding. Error Code 080070005 is an 'access denied' Windows error.

Typically when this error occurs you can't install anything on to a particular drive, I've not heard of a download getting to 90% or 100% then failing with 080070005.

I suspect the error may be down to administration privileges with the Windows user account you're using when downloading the games.

I would try creating a new Windows account, remembering to give it Administration access. Log in on both the Windows Store and the Game Pass app with your account that has Game Pass and try installing a game again.

This was seen on Windows 98 back in the day.

I am having a similar problem. I signed up for the xbox game pass for pc beta today and paid for it, yet whenever I click on a game in the app, it prompts me to sign up and pay for it again, then gives me an error.
