Some Games on Xbox PC App Won't Update with 0x80070020

Hi Robert

Sorry to hear about that, however, please note that gold isn't required if you play on PC.

Thus, you would just need to ensure that you're signed in on the Microsoft store app and Xbox app using the account that you used to buy the game.

If it still won't work, try to check if there are pending updates on your PC. This includes optional updates as well.

Go to your PC Settings > Windows Update > Check for updates

If it has, check your Microsoft store app > Library > Get Updates and ensure that your apps are up to date.

If it still won't work, try to repair your Xbox app, Gaming Services app and Microsoft store app, by going to your PC settings > Apps > Installed apps > click the 3 dots > Advance options > Repair and do this to the other apps I've listed > Restart your PC.

Another update, while my IP won't be out here until Thursday, I had a PC update and now my Microsoft Store won't download apps there either. So it seems to be the Microsoft Store on both Xbox and PC.

Try see if in your Xbox App on PC have some Update to do or the Game in PC and Nintendo Switch is the same version

Hi,

Have you checked for any new windows 10 updates sometimes it's required to have your pc up to date or some apps won't work properly

The thing is, that you can't "easily" uninstall the Xbox Apps.

Also, since there are several system internal tools like the Game Bar that is deeply integrated in the system relying on the Xbox app, I would NOT recommend uninstalling it, as this might possibly cause issues with future Windows Updates, if you "hack" the
apps from your system through power shell commands and the likes.

Is there a specific reason, why you would want the Xbox Apps gone? Usually, if you disable the live tile from the Xbox App, and remove the app from the start menu, it won't take any system resources, and won't affect your PC.

So unless you have a very good reason for not having the app on your PC, I would just remove it from the start menu, and just forget that the app exists on the PC.

Simply having an unused app hidden deep down the start menu is much better, than having a Windows Update that fails for some unexplainable reason.
