Trying to download Elgato Software

Cameron Bowers 20

I keep getting this error whenever I try to download the Elgato software. It always something it seems with windows being awesome! App installation failed with error message: Common::Deployment::MsixvcStagingSession::GetManifestReader in MsixvcStagingSession failed with error 0x80070570. (0x80070570) I tried all the health checks for RAM, Drive, and security. Nothing was causing the issues because of those. Please help if possible! Thanks. (Im also on Windows 11 if this helps at all.)

So I tried all of this that the AI suggested, everything came back healthy or the install didnt work. The only issue I ran into was the powershell commands, everytime I tried those, I would get an error message "the < operator is reserved for future use" The AI didnt say what other commands could be used if those didnt. I dont know enough about using powershell to know how to go around those. All I know is, this is so dumb just to try and install a mic software app..... only windows would be this stupid

Hi Cameron Bowers,

I’m sorry to hear that you’re facing troubles downloading the Elgato application. The error 0x80070570 usually means the file or directory is corrupted, likely a Windows app deployment failure. Here’s what you can try:

1 - If you’re trying to download it from the Microsoft Store

Go to the official Elgato’s website instead
Choose the product > Download its installer
Right‑click the .exe > Run as administrator.

2 - Reset Windows App Installer & Store components

Press Win + R > type wsreset.exe > press Enter
Reboot PC after it completes > try the download again.

3 - Check Windows system image integrity

Open Command Prompt / PowerShell as Administrator
- Run: DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth
- Run: sfc /scannow
After they complete, restart and retry the install.

4 - Reinstallation repair (keeping files and apps)

Use built-in repair option
- Open Settings > System > Recovery > Fix problems using Windows Update
- Click Reinstall now > follow the onscreen instructions to reinstall Windows.
Perform an in-place upgrade:
- Refer to Reinstall Windows with the installation media - Microsoft Support
- Navigate to the bottom of the page and expand In-place Upgrade.
- You can also check out the instructions from one of the Moderators here: How to run In-place upgrade in Windows 11 - Microsoft Q&A

Disclaimer: Both Windows reinstallation and in-place upgrade will refresh your Windows files and operating system without removing files or applications. That being said, we always recommend that if you have important data, you should back it up first before making large system changes.

If the issue persists, please let me know whether you’re downloading via Microsoft Store or Elgato’s site, and which Elgato product it is?

Error 0x80070570 during MSIX/APPX-style app installation typically indicates corrupted or unreadable installation files or underlying Windows component issues.

Try the following steps in order:

Verify the installer source

Re-download the Elgato installer from its official source.
If installing via Microsoft Store or an .appinstaller/MSIX package from the web, ensure the server is correctly serving files (correct MIME type and Content-Length header). Incorrect HTTP headers can cause MSIX install failures and errors similar to other App Installer issues.
If possible, download the app package file locally and install from disk rather than directly from a URL.

Test installation via PowerShell (for MSIX/APPX) If Elgato provides an MSIX/APPX or .appinstaller file:
Download the app package file to a local folder.
Open PowerShell as Administrator.
Run:
- Add-AppxPackage <path-to-app-package>
- Or, if using an .appinstaller file: Add-AppxPackage -Appinstaller <path-to-appinstaller>

If this fails, it confirms a deployment/App Installer issue rather than just the Elgato UI.

Check App Installer logs

Open Event Viewer → Application and Services Logs → Microsoft → Windows → AppxDeployment-Server and review recent errors for more detail on why the package fails.
Additional diagnostic logs are in:
- %LocalAppData%\Packages\Microsoft.DesktopAppInstaller_8wekyb3d8bbwe\LocalState\DiagOutputDir

Repair Windows component corruption Error 0x80070570 can be caused by damaged system files used by the deployment stack.

Run DISM to repair the Windows image:

Open Command Prompt as Administrator.
Run:
- DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Restorehealth
Let it complete, then reboot.

If there are still issues, also run a disk check to repair drive errors:

Open Command Prompt as Administrator.
Run:
- chkdsk /f C:
Approve running at next restart, then reboot so it can scan and repair.
Try a clean boot and reinstall

Perform a clean boot of Windows to minimize interference from third-party software, then attempt the Elgato install again. (See “How to perform a clean boot in Windows” in the referenced article.)

If system corruption persists If multiple app installs fail or Windows Update is also problematic, an in-place repair of Windows 11 using the ISO (keeping files and apps) may be required, as used in similar cases of corrupted update/installation components.
