0x800706d9 in Microsoft Store – How to Fix?

Code 0x800706d9 appears in Microsoft Store when I try to download various apps. Tried to reset the application and even dug into the Firewall settings, as recommended by friends, but nothing helped. Can you please tell me what to do?

Solution

To get rid of error 0x800706d9 in the Microsoft Store app, the user needs to try two things:

• fix potentially corrupted system files;
• reinstall the Store app completely.

To do the first thing, you have to open the command line (always as admin!) and enter the command sfc /scannow in it.

For the second, open PowerShell (also as admin!) and run the command Get-AppXPackage *WindowsStore* -AllUsers | Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register “$($_.InstallLocation)\AppXManifest.xml”}.

Of course, after each command you have to reboot the PC.
