Error code on installing the game

Had the game since it came out with no issues. Couldn’t download the new update yesterday as I wasn’t prompted to when I started the game and I wasn’t able to download the update via the Microsoft Store either. Otherwise the game started up and ran fine on the recent version before the update. So I went into the MSFS app and hit the repair and reset buttons and the game uninstalled itself which isn’t what I wanted to do. Anyway I tried to reinstall and it stays on 0% and I get the error code 0x80070424 and that’s as far as I can get. I Googled that error code but haven’t been able to resolve the issue. Has anyone else gotten that error code or might know how to resolve this? I’m very frustrated. Thanks for any help.

This forum has info on that error code.
Here is a link to a thread that contains some ideas.

Yes, that was the ticket. One of the suggestions was to uninstall Gaming Services using Windows PowerShell and reinstall it and now all is well again. Thank you so much for your help. Much appreciated.
