  1. XBOX app: 0x8007005 when installing several games


    I post here because in the last 3 days I read dozens of forums and potential fixes and a load of user have the same problem and in the end it's only "fixed" with reinstalling Windows. Well, that's not a fix.
    Imagine you have a subscription with Netflix, can't watch half their movies and they tell you to reinstall your PC or Android phone.

    What i never saw in all that forums were eventlogs and I hope this might interest any developer here to look deeper what's really going on,

    My 20H2 was done by a complete upgrade with the upgrade tool, so basically that's a fresh installation.

    Windows 10 Pro 20H2 with KB4580419 (.net updates) and no open updates

    XBOX app 2010.1001.15.0

    Some games (eg Gears 5) can be installed, many others can't (eg Bridge Constructor Portal): Error x80070005.

    User has administrator rights, Gamng Pass Ultimate valid until 2023.

    Done and did not fix the problem

    Forza Horizon 5 Deluxe Edition won't install

    Hi

    Thanks for your reply

    I have updated everything and got the latest Xbox app.

    Now when I try to install, it begins to download (several GB) then eventually gives me the following error message before it completes:

    'Something unexpected happened. Reporting this problem will help us understand it better ...etc' ' error code 0x8007005

    There is plenty of spare capacity on the drive that I am installing to and I have a 350 mb/s internet connection.

    It shouldn't be this hard to install a £50 game. What should I try next?

    Regards

    James

    Xbox shuts off when i eject a disc and gives an error when trying to start up skyrim

    hi the error code is 0x8007005. ive learned that it also affects apps as well.
    Sonic the hero,

    Thanks for the follow up and the additional information. The error code [0x8007005] does show up in "Error & Status Code Search", and sure enough it has to do with
    login issues. When search on the error code It comes up with a complete list of steps to perform in hopes of correcting the problem. Yes, I know, some of the things you may have already tried. But, it maybe worth it to go through them one-by-one to make sure
    you have done everything to get you back up and running.
