Actually any large windows store game, in this particular case Forza Horizon 4.
It just tried and then puts up a message that it failed and will try again later. It then gives up and puts up a hexadecimal error code.
Googling that code leads nowhere. There isn't even a canonical description of what the code means. All I get from that are forum posts with solutions that don't do anything.
The store happily lets me install the shovelware, without issue.
You should. I was in a position similar to yours: wanted to play REmake 2 but had never played the first. Also, I usually don't like fixed camera (I hated it in DMC, for instance), but I gave it a chance and I loved it. I still got annoyed at the camera, but it's not too bad when you get used to it. In terms of story you don't really need it to follow RE2, although there are some connections, but it's a great game.

great tip. I set my central monitor to 60Hz (all three on 60Hz now) and the idle decreased to 139Mhz and temperature decreased by 10 degree celsius (from 53 to 43)!
I'm also interested to know if there's a proper fix for this. There wasn't few years ago. The only one I know that works is re-installing whole Windows, which is completely unacceptable as a fix to a simple game download but I've had to do it couple of times.
Metro Exodus players are leaving thousands of positive reviews - on Steam
But user reviews bad
Steam bad
Volvo bad

Can you send me a PM with that error code? Or a screenshot?
I'll see if I can ask around internally this week at work.
My current manager used to work on the store team and I have deep ties to the gaming side so between us hopefully I can track down someone who can help with this issue. I've never encountered it myself but I'm sure the current team knows hence there being an error code.

I'll just post it here, in case anybody else has had the same problem.
The code is 0x80080206
Googling that yields several kinds of solutions. Most common of which is to run "wsreset", but that application doesn't do anything and presents no information to the user of what exactly it is doing either.

Thanks. I'll keep you posted.
May take a few days since we are bogged down with quarterly reviews and deadlines for one more week in my org. I'll PM if I need anymore details.
Been playing The King of Fighters XIV.
Not that I don't already have a good chunk of them ready to play (everything available on Steam except for KOF 97 and that... thing that came out the other day), but I need more SNK fighters on Steam.

Gonna try and finish up Quantum Break today. The last boss almost did me in yesterday. After a few tries, I finally realize what is happening. Weird final fight but I stuck with the game so far and I am gonna finish it, damnit.
Overall, the game is good. Kind of slow, but the powers are pretty awesome. I even sat through the TV show. Though, they probably could of cut that and the game would be better for it.

Honestly, this is the best way to combat those who complain about review bombing, and the people who do it.
You can automate the switching of refresh rates by going into the Nvidia control panel, the Manage 3D settings, and changing "Preferred refresh rate" to highest available. This will make your monitor automatically switch to 144hz whenever you run a fullscreen game and switch back after it is closed.
Doesn't work for borderless/windowed games. Have to change manually for that.
All the avatars are confusing the mods. It's like zebras misdirecting lions.
Compared the Russian or Chinese dashcam videos this is nothing.

How many of those were people finding giant spiders in their cars and panicking?
This is probably the most wholesome dashcam video I have ever seen
I may have watched too many dashcam videos....
Now make that Double Fine Sesame Street game Xbox One BC so I can get me the neXt box.
You've already tried reinstalling the Store app with PowerShell I'm guessing? That usually fixes all errors for me.
No.
Seemingly I've tried everything but that. Can you point out what I have to do?
edit: nvm, googled it:
https://www.winhelponline.com/blog/restore-windows-store-windows-10-uninstall-with-powershell/
It "fixed" that error, now the download won't error out, but it is stuck at 176.2MB
Edit 2: Nope, restarting the store, gave me the same error as before.

See that's the beauty of the Windows Store. WIth a normal, boring client, you download it, and the game just boots. But not so with the Windows Store, oh no! This little store always has a surprise waiting for you, from Download issues to random crashes, it's got it all. And with Microsoft (in)famous software quality, you never need to fear that the fun will stop. No matter the year, no matter the OS version, the Windows Store will never be boring to use.I'll just post it here, in case anybody else has had the same problem.

I also really like how when things actually do work and launch, you're actually glad and don't just take it for granted. It's really a great and humbling experience.
Maybe not the day to make this point with another game getting the ever living shit review bombed out of it.
I finished the main story for Frostpunk! Feels good. Very enjoyable game. I liked the resource balancing. By the end I had plenty of stockpiled stuff. I didn't realise on my first playthrough that you could and should....
Made all the difference and my towns people now see me as a warm heat providing super mayor.
Build plenty of workhouses to advance research.

Have you futzed around with any Windows services or used any of those telemetry disabling scripts? The Windows Store breaks at the slightest provocation when you start fucking around with Windows services.
This has been on my wish list for a while. How did you find the difficulty? Is it a time-sensitive game keeping pressure on you? Stressful?
My recommendation for Sekiro is: "The only game that really matters this year." .March Game Recommendations

Devotion. Went from Overwhelmingly Positive to Mixed within 48 hours due to angry gamers upset over a meme.
