Add-AppxPackage : Deployment failed with HRESULT: 0x80073CF3, Package failed updates, dependency or conflict validation

Question

When i try to install Minecraft Bedrock Edition, it doesn't work. It gives me this error. I don't know why this happened, as it was just working fine yesterday. Bedrock Launcher unregistered the package and when i tried to install it again, it was not working anymore. Even if i use the App Installer it's not installing. It's just unresponsive. I have also turned on Developer Mode and still doesn't work. I have searched online numerous times but they are all the same thing. They don't even work. What the hell is going on here?

Answer 1

Hi,

you're missing a framework: "Microsoft.Services.Store.Engagement".

You will need to install that framework since the Minecraft package depends on it.

Why are you installing Minecraft via an Appx in the first place? In case you are trying to get around licensing, I highly doubt it will work. ;)

Sincerely,

Answer 2

I've already installed that in my C:\Windows\System32 folder. Still gives me the same problem.

Answer 3

Hi, I have the same issue. Thing is, personally, I do own the game, but when going to the store on an arm device, it says "your computer's processor isn't compatible with this app" (or something like that, i don't remember)

so i thought i should find an arm64 appx, and yet when i try to install it gives me the same error, basically stating that Engagement Framework is missing.

So I was like "I can find an appx of that too" except when i did, and when i tried to install, it just loaded for a few seconds and then crashed package installer.

when i tried with the appx command, it just processed and didn't give an output, and when i tried to install minecraft, it still gave the same error.

The x64 version works fine, even as an appx, why not the arm64 version?
