I've been having this issue with the Microsoft Store for the past few Insider Builds, but it only happens to two games, Sea of Thieves and the Insider Version, I've tried everything, willing to try anything else

But the main two issues I get are 0x80073CF0 and 0x80073CF9
`fsutil behavior set DisableEncryption 0` fixed the 0x80073CF9 but it came back, again will try anything.

Thank you!

Same here; I didn't see this post and posted one of my own. Sorry 'bout dat!

I can't even open the Microsoft Store itself, without trying to download anything.

I just disconnected my SurfShark VPN and now I can get into the MS Store.

So, if you have a VPN running, that might be the issue.

Not using a VPN, I don't have one installed.

It only does it to sea of thieves though. Any other game works fine.

I did a search on 0x80073CF0 and came up with this WindowsClub fix. There may be some things you haven't tried before.

www.thewindowsclub.com

Fix Microsoft Store Error Code 0x80073Cf0 on Windows 11/10

Apply the solutions presented in this post to effectively fix the Microsoft Store Error Code 0x80073Cf0 on Windows 11/10.
www.thewindowsclub.com www.thewindowsclub.com

Also, when I was having trouble, one bit of advice given was to reset the Store (first) if that didn't work, try to repair the Store.

I'm going back and do a search on 0x80073CF9.

I'm out of ideas, then. My problem was my VPN.

Also, during my search, it seems that these problems have been ongoing with the Store for some time. I saw one dating back to 2016. :(
