[PC] Cannot download the game

Error code 0x803F8001

thanks microsoft

Sometimes the store acts up and somehow magically it works again at a later time of day, but anyway take a look at these sites.

Or you can try the 2 powershell commands i made in this post.

thanks for the links, but I’ve already tried all of these they never work. had the same problem with fh3, had to reformat pc.

Unfortunately i had the same problem back then, had to do a clean reinstall. i tried most of the stuff above.

  • Router portfowarding
  • Updating windows + drivers + software
  • WSReset command
  • Powershell commands to reinstall apps
  • DISM scan
  • SFC scan
  • Creating AUInstallAgent Folder and removing SoftwareDistribution folder
  • Checking Windows Services
  • Total Reset with WindowsRepair from tweaking.com
  • Regular Windows Troubleshooters
  • Clean boot without 3rd party software
  • Resettings internet explorer settings
  • Probably alot more

Eventually you just scratch your head and reinstall Windows 10 clean :confused:

Yep I am reinstalling Windows 10 as we speak as I was also getting store download issues, I had to do the same thing when FH3 came out.

Windows Store is a crock of horse manure!!!

If you are still unable to download the game, please send an email to forzafb@microsoft.com so I can look into this.

Still broken, now the download just fails halfway through.

i have the same problem will try to contact forzafb@microsoft.com

Same problem with windows store, all above methods tried, i thought the price was abit of a joke until i tried to download, 90gig to 0, ok try again 62gig to 0 wtf
Also the windows store keeps give out some wacky download speeds, for the past 10 minutes it says my d/l speed is 3 times faster than what i get from my provider but has infact downloaded nothing, There really should be some alternative to this mess thats called windows store same problem that fh3 had, i thought uplay was bad but this takes the cake

The speed indication in the Windows Store is Mbit/s (Megabit per second), not Mb/s (Megabyte per second).
So if you have let’s say a 40mbit internet provider, and you download at max speed in Windows store, it will show 40Mbps, divide that number by 8 and you will have Megabyte per second.

Anyway try this
start - settings (cogwheel icon) - apps & features - store - advanced options - reset

if that doesn’t work perhaps this one

start - settings (cogwheel icon) - apps & features - Forza Motorsport 7 - advanced options - reset

Im well aware the difference between internet speeds mb/s vs mbps ect

The other 2 i have already tried, thanks for your input appreciated

I had this too, but i think i have it working. It was download past 15gb when i left for work this morning and i never had gotten even close to that far before. What I did was update windows ( i was one update behind),installed the windows insider update thing, and used wreset to reset the store. I am hoping when i get home it finally completes.

I have got the download to 64% now, i opened the forza 7 app then i went back to the store then started the download, although on the app it still says downloading 0%
Currently downloaded 250gig of nothing so hopefully this works
