For the passed few days I have been trying to get into my Netflix app, however the app refused to load. So I decided to uninstall it and then reinstall to try and fix the problem. But every time I try to reinstall the app I receive the error code 0x80070057. Any idea how to fix this? I am currently using Windows 8.1 and waiting for my Windows 10 update.

    As I posted above, installing Flixster actually solve my problem. It may not work for everyone so the other solution might work for them.

    I appreciate R3N1LD43D taking the time to help others. For me, it is a matter of personal preference and security not to install files posted by users when I have no way of knowing if they've been modified. Others may not be so concerned - that is their call.

    Regardless of how it gets fixed, I'm glad this thread is producing some tangible results after I wasted an enormous amount of time looking for solutions. I wish Microsoft and Netflix would bother to fix the things they break. This sort of thing happens frequently with the Netflix plugin for media center, as well.

    This is the perfect fix. And Flixsters a fun app and great for checking out a movie you're about to see.
