This error usually comes up when there is a problem with the store on the Microsoft side. Usually the problem is resolved in a few days, please do not do anything with your phone, router or any other piece of equipment, no resets or reinstallations will make any difference and you may lose apps which are no longer available in the store. The solution can come only from MS and the only thing you can do is wait, no matter how frustrating it is.
Error 805a0193 on WP8.1 devices when downloading/updating apps from the Store - NOW RESOLVED
I recently bought a Nokia Lumina 640 because i want to get some windows phone games for achievents. The first thing i try and download gives me this error.
I have searched and searched and i cant find a definitive answer on what the issue is and how to resolve it. It seems to be some error with my network, but what error? Is it a port thing? What ports does it need?
I did the steps the microsoft website suggests, which were to: manually change my time, manually sync my email, make sure to update my microsoft account, and finally, to reset my phone. None of that worked so i am looking for real answers.

Actually support ended on July 11, 2017.
"Other services including photo uploads, restoring a device from an existing device backup and the Store will continue to work for at least another 12 months from end of support, af ter which time, services will start to be discontinued."

I have no information that this has happened yet, however it is not completely out of the question, since MS killed off the store for WP7 without any warning or official announcement. However they did that 3 years (2017) after end of support (2014).
That is absurd, my two windows phones are 1,5 years old!
To be very frank and direct - buying WP8 phones 1,5 years ago was not a very smart decision, as it was exactly the time when support ended and it was already clear for a long time that WP is dead.
