Nope mine is patching now on D drive.

Good, your lucky then, so you did not even install on C then move to D originally, just installed straight to D ?

Is the 0x80073cf9 error on the windows store? As that's what I am getting at the moment.

Yep, same here. Microsoft can eat a bag of *****.

£50 for a game you can't play. Grr.

Wooohoooooo patch it downloading..... running WSReset.exe as a administrator fixed it for me.

Apparently Windows just released an update for Win10 users with store issues if it helps any one, just checked my windows update and it was doing it in back ground

Update stuck at 40.62 mb...anyone else same issue?

Akmeeda · 11 Oct 2016 at 19:32

Getting the same error message.

Close gears if its still running, for some reason it seems to keep the program open and that stopped the download for me til i closed it out.

Same, but HDD access is going mental (despite not registering in Task or Perf Mon).

Okays guys I found out why the download seems buggy and you're tempting to pause and resume the download. So I looked in my windows app that contained the game it had two folders version 9.1.0.2 and version 9.2.0.2. What windows stores does is it downloads the update first, then copy's all the 70GB+ game from the 9.1.0.2 to 9.2.0.2. I found this out because I kept refreshing 9.2.0.2 folder and I saw that the file size was increasing everytime I refreshed as fast as I can. After it has copied all the files from 9.1.0.2 to 9.2.0.2, it will automatically delete the older version and you'll only see the new version. And you'll see in the windows store that it says play. So, when we all are waiting to play the game, but the update feel like its taking ages, its because it's copying all that 70GB+.

Lol. Nice. What if you don't have 70GB free to do that?!

Uncle Petey · 11 Oct 2016 at 19:45

I dunno. I don't have the free space either.

kinger8938 · 11 Oct 2016 at 19:47

so id it safe to assume MS is getting hammered? my download is just sitting at 29gb

Mark1989 · 11 Oct 2016 at 19:48

Ms really are horrible in software side of things these days, my xbox one is downloading it no issues so how when xbox and pc share same store based on same windows kernel can they get these issues repeatedly

Check your HDD activity. I'm watching my disk space get eaten whilst it copies the directory over to "patch".

Micky Mouse yo.
