Question Code : 0x80073D02 when installing forza horizon 4

[math686u]

Hello
When I install forza horizon 4 it will stop after a few seconds and come up with the code : 0x80073D02. I'm not using MSI afterburner and i have tried to run wsreset.exe.
Hope you guys can help (Windows 10).

wsreset.exe is old advice, it is from 2015 and not reliable now.

On a Windows 10 based the 'Windows Shell Experience Host' app, cannot be re-installed (re-registered) by using the "Add-AppxPackage" PowerShell command, with error: "Microsoft.Windows.ShellExperienceHost Deployment failed with HRESULT 0x80073D02. The package could not be installed because resources it modifies are currently in use" (Event ID 401, 404, 419).


The deployment error 0x80073D02 can appear, when you try to re-register all the Windows 10 built-in apps* or, when you try to register only the "Windows Shell Experience Host" app**:

how that relates to FH4 is a good question but I expect the installer uses powershell commands to achieve its goals. I am not 100% sure if the solution here will help you or not. My guess is its running the top command but how you fix it is another question since its the store doing it.
