I have already tried updating my computer, it is up to date (22h2)

I cannot delete gaming services because it was never installed in the first place

I have reset the Microsoft Store many times.

I am logged in to the same accounts on both Xbox and Microsoft Store

It says, "Something happened on our end"

error code 80070490, there is no other storage system to download to other than the original

This is a brand new Laptop with Windows 11

I have updated the drivers

Windows for home | Windows 11 | Microsoft Store

    If the issue still persists, please try performing an In-place Upgrade. Performing this can repair broken operating system files while your personal files, settings and installed applications will not be removed.

    **Few things to check on the PC

    Unplug all external peripherals except for the Mouse, Keyboard, and LAN cable before starting

    Disable or uninstall any 3rd party Anti-Virus program to prevent it from interfering with the upgrade

    Thank you for replying, it has never worked for me. I got this laptop about a week ago and have been trying everything to download gaming services. I don't have any third party VPN's. I have tried everything you suggested and nothing has worked.
