Oh, you are supposed to check that whilst holding your left foot behind you right ear.
I only came across that one by trial and error. lol
Sorry to hear of your dilemma, I had heaps of problems with installing it on my son's PC which is an identical twin to my PC both with brand new installations of Win 10 on brand new HDDs.
His installation of Win 10 kept corrupting the Microsoft Store user file. I had to keep trying everything repeatedly before it finally came good.
Here's what I tried. Remember it may not work the first time.
These are some troubleshooting tips below that may help you get into the game should you be one of the affected players.
Fix #1
Login to Windows 10 with a local Microsoft Account. This fixes majority of cases reported.
Fix #2
Open the Windows 10 Store, then in the top right corner click on the profile picture.
If you have multiple accounts signed in, sign out all of them but leave the email account linked to the game’s purchase signed in.
Next, in the Windows 10 Store download any free app at all.
Then try playing Sea of Thieves again through the Windows 10 Store “Library” page.
Fix #3
Go to the below link and save / run the tool. Follow the on screen instructions to troubleshoot / fix your issue.
Fix#4
Press Windows + R
Type Powershell and hit enter
Copy and paste the following into the powershell window and press enter
Get-AppXPackage | Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register “$($_.InstallLocation)\AppXManifest.xml”}
If your problem persists please create a support ticket for further assistance.
Regards,
I hope that helps, mate.
It wasn't until after I performed the Poweshell tip the second time that it started to work.
Remember to reboot between each attempt.
