Slow internet connection, Internet Security Suite, which is in between, etc. can cause a download interruption. Weak servers or unstable Internet connections could also be a problem.

I also found the information that the error code stands for \"This issue occurs due to corrupted or missing Windows settings.\". That would explain, why some users get the message that the app cannot be installed on an SD card &#8211; even though no SD card is specified as a destination. <\/p>\n<p>Personally, I would try to reset the store (press the shortcut Windows+R and type <em>wsreset.exe <\/em>into the Run dialog box.
