Technically the numerical code still gives you a precise search key to find other people discussing the same issue.
… You know, as would be useful for a serious operating system where online support doesn’t mean trawling the bowels of Reddit praying somebody’s had the same issue and found a reproducible solution.
Except the code covers SUCH a vague issue that it’s useless. Not very precise when any issue with the store gives you the same code. Maybe it couldn’t find a DNS record for the online store. Maybe its local db is corrupt. Maybe it’s been locked out administratively. Doesn’t matter which root cause, same error code, so it’s not a “precise” error code.
These may not be the case in this instance, but in many, many other instances, it sure has been

Hello I’m a 12 year Microsoft MVP and Certified independent advisor here to help.
Please type “CMD” into the start menu then type “ckdsk /f /r”
If this solved your issue please click on “Accept as solution”!
Unrealistic. Every repair on Windows starts with
DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Restorehealthfollowed bysfc /scannow…wait. no… That’s the correct way. The MS MVP in the forum always mix it up and tell you to run them in reverse…
Fyi do not run that if you used MAS :-)
what will happen?
Why would you use anything else.
Because Linux exists :p
That key is probably the same for all store issues
“Solved it, I will DM you the solution.”
This is the only part I despise of forum culture like MDL or the likes.
If you have a solution, or even better: if you have written software or a guide for this, please just publish it online.
Who were you DenverCoder9?
What did you see?!
The problem is that “the same issue” here means “there’s any error at all with the MS Store”. Any discussion about there will be useless.
I have copied down and manually typed out numbers like that many times when using windows. I’m not sure it ever once helped me in the slightest.
It’s infuriating that you can’t just copy the text in those sometimes
Tends to be as helpful as those windows saying “We are looking for a solution to your problem online”
Haha yes those dialogs never helped me either.
