Microsoft store error code 0x80073D12
on Windows

Hello, I have an issue with the error code: 0x80073D12. I tried installing various games and applications, and cannot do so due to this error on Microsoft Store. The message is "one or more items in this bundle didn't install yet, well keep trying. you can also try installing them from downloads and updates" and I have no idea what that is about. I cannot download nor install anything I want from the MS Store. What can I do?

The most common reason and the solution for such issues when people can't download some apps can be the lack of space on the computer, so when you make sure that there is enough hard drive space for the application or the game, you can download it without any errors or issues.
