Yesterday the game worked fine, but now today on July 7th when I launch the game to play, I get the error message saying "check your account" when my account is fine, so I tried to restart the PC and didn't worked, then when I uninstall the game to reinstall, I can't reinstall it because it keeps giving me the same error message with this error code: 0x803F8001. I even runned wsreset.exe to clear the cache, restore the Windows store to default and restarted the PC again, but nothing worked. I can install other apps and games with no problem.

Any help would be appreciated, please.

    Excuses, so far i know of 3 different games from 3 different vendors got broken after a Microsoft update: asphalt 8, 2020 my home, and backgammon pro, so in what world this is not Microsoft's fault do you think that the 3 vendors fabricated a conspiracy to break their games and piss off thousands of users? Ha!

    AHA! Does this solve it for most or all of rest of you? Serendipity, synchronicity, blind luck or Nell and Dudley Do-Right's horse saves the day?

    Hope so. Still sounds like a funny way to have to get it to work, but whatever.

    Hey guess what? I got mine fixed already yesterday now!

    I just need to make a new local account and log into that, start the download and then cancel it, log out from the new account and log back into my main account and finally it started to reinstall.

    It's sad for me that I missed so many time limited events and 3 daily login rewards because of this issue.
