Hi all. Since today I have been getting an error (Code: 0x80073CF9) when I'm trying to install apps from Microsoft Store. The apps downloads but then at the end it says, 'there has been an error'.
I'm using Windows 10.
I have restarted my laptop, done the store reset command but no luck.
It would be great if someone can help me.
Thanks

I checked my update history and don't see KB5046613 in it. Since this issue started recently, I have attached a screenshot of the recent updates my system has received.
