Xbox App Not Installing Error Code 0x8004e103 On Microsoft Store On PC FIX
Error 0x8004e103 when installing the Xbox App from the Microsoft Store typically occurs due to corrupt system files, Microsoft account authentication issues, or Microsoft Store cache corruption. Below are the most common reasons for this error and how to fix them:
1️ ⃣ Corrupt Microsoft Store Cache
The Microsoft Store relies on temporary cache files to function properly.
If these files become corrupted, it can lead to installation errors like 0x8004e103.
🔹 Fix: Reset the Microsoft Store cache:
Press Win + R, type wsreset.exe, and hit Enter.
A blank Command Prompt window will open, then close automatically.
Restart your PC and try installing the Xbox app again.
2️ ⃣ Microsoft Store or Xbox Services Not Running
The Xbox app depends on certain services like Microsoft Store Install Service and Gaming Services.
If these services are stopped or disabled, the installation will fail.
Fix: Restart the necessary services:
Open Run (Win + R) and type services.msc, then press Enter.
Locate and restart these services:
Microsoft Store Install Service
Xbox Live Auth Manager
Xbox Live Networking Service
Gaming Services
Try installing the Xbox app again.https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows11..
