Xbox App - Error 0x80070005 when trying to install some games

renankaic · Dec 14, 2021

Hi.

I've subscribed to game pass.

I could install Age of Empires III: DE, Age of Empires IV, Forza 5 and Wolfenstein II and download some other titles.

But I can't simply install other games like Injustice 2, Gears of War 4 (which I bought I long time ago) and some other titles because I receive the error 0x80070005 just before the download starts.

I've tried a lot of suggestions, such like upgrading my windows, running sfc, dism, reinstalling Store, reseting xbox app, checking my account privacy settings, create a new zeroed partition with NTFS file system... None of them worked.

I have 16GB of RAM, Ryzen 1600AF, GTX 1060 6GB with a 1TB of HDD drive. My Windows is installed in a 240GB SSD.

Please, do you guys have any other suggestion?

I paid for the service but it doesn't work with the games that I want to play.

:)

Well if you already tried everything some users have stated that the option that helped them to solved this was to restart their PC as it comes here:

In the part of Windows 10 click on "Reset this PC" these instructions will help you to solve the problem, you can even leave your important files!

Sometimes it gets fixed but itself, a shame we don't know why buy hey GAME ON!

Christopher, thanks for sending the post to me.

I've already followed all the steps but they didn't solve the 0x80070005 error in my Xbox App.
