    Pc.

  • Me too, im installing all again

  • This was happening to me too and giving me Error code 0x80070005. I just restarted my PC and it finished installing.

  • Run the windows troubleshooter.

    Start menu - "troubleshoot" - click on "Windows Update" - let the troubleshooter run while the MS Store app is closed. Once complete, try the download again.

    If that doesn't work restore the cache. Close the MS Store app - Start menu - "wsreset" - run as administrator. The store will reboot after a few moments. Try the download again.

    If that still doesn't work, go into your user files. Go to "C:\Users\user_name\AppData\Local\Packages\Microsoft.WindowsStore_8wekyb3d8bbwe\LocalCache" and delete all the files. Reboot MS Store and try it again.

    I think both of your suggestions fixed it. Thanks mateys

  • doesnt work for me

  • @natanbellei7 you using game pass? if so, that is why. known issue right now

  • yes im, i signed the game pass, so the is problem with ms

  • @natanbellei7 I am also a subscriber of the Game Pass and I did not have this problem ... here I downloaded the 19GB and it ran without any problems ... I'm almost sure that the problem is not because of Game Pass ...

  • trying these fixes now with no luck. pc over here so 60 dollars down the pooper if they don't fix this

  • Im having the same issue here. No gamepass, just bought the game straight up from the windows store. 60 bucks. And is wont install :(

    Before doing this, I had right clicked on my start button > Apps and Features > and Uninstalled Sea of Thieves. The "Update" was still there and giving an error. I deleted the LocalCache folder contents and then the "Update" showed an error where I was then able to click the "X". I then re-installed Sea of Thieves and it worked :D

  • I installed SoT on my Pc after purchasing on my xbox and now with the new update i've tried uninstalling and i even updated it on my xbox but there isn't anything giving me the option to update on my Pc
