How can I fix error code 0x80070032 in Forza Horizon 5?

It turns out that Forza Horizon 5 has been out for a while now and for the most part the game has been running smoothly except for a few issues like the error code FH301. As we mentioned, the error code is usually caused by the locally saved data of the app you are using, be it the Microsoft Store or the app Xbox.

As such, you will need to reset your apps to try and resolve the issue at hand. With that being said, let’s get started and show you the different methods you can use to resolve the problem.

Update using Microsoft Store

The first thing you should do when you encounter the issue in question when trying to update Forza Horizon 5 is to try using the Microsoft Store. In some cases, the error code in question may appear when you use the Xbox app on your system to update the game, but the problem does not occur when you use an alternative app.

This can sometimes happen when the Xbox app cache is corrupted, causing the issue. As such, open Microsoft Store and try updating the game from there to see if the issue persists.

Use the Xbox app

It turns out that some users are encountering the above-mentioned error code while trying to update the game via Microsoft Store. In such a scenario, what you can do is download the Xbox app on your computer and force a Microsoft Store installation. The problem, in some cases, occurs when the Microsoft Store package is missing from your system. This has been reported by another user who was facing a similar issue. For that, you can follow the instructions given below:

• First, download the app Xbox on your computer by clicking this link here.
• Once the app has been downloaded, go ahead and launch it. You will be prompted to log in first, go ahead and do so.

• After you log in, click on your avatar and then go to Configuration.
• On the second tab, you will be prompted to install Microsoft Store. Go ahead and do that.
• Once this is done, see if the problem goes away.

Reset the Xbox app

Another way to resolve the issue at hand is to reset the Xbox app that is installed on your computer. As we mentioned, the problem can sometimes occur when the locally stored cache is corrupted or damaged, which can interfere with games and update processes. To resolve this, follow the instructions below:

• To get started, open the Settings window by pressing the key Windows + I on your keyboard.
• In the Settings window, go to Applications.

• There, navigate to the option Applications and functions provided.

• In the list of installed apps, look for Xbox.
• Next to the search result, click on the three vertical dots and, in the drop-down menu, select the button Advanced.
• Scroll down and click the button Resetting provided to reset the application.

• With that done, see if the problem goes away.

Restore Microsoft Store and Forza Horizon 5

In case resetting the Xbox app doesn't fix the problem, then it's highly likely that the issue is with the game's cache files or the Microsoft Store. In such a scenario, you can try resetting the Microsoft Store app data first and then Forza Horizon 5. To do this, it's important that you follow the instructions given below:

• First, press the Windows key + the I keys on your keyboard to open the window Configuration.
• Then, in the Settings window, go to Applications.

• Now, navigate to the option Applications and functions.

• Once you are there, simply search Microsoft Store.
• After that, click on the three dots and choose Advanced.

• Scroll down the advanced options page and click on the option Restore.

• Once this is done, see if the error code still appears.
• If you do, go ahead and do the same for Forza Horizon 5.
• After doing that, reboot your system.
• Once your PC starts up, see if the problem persists.

Reinstall Forza Horizon 5

Finally, if none of the above methods have fixed the problem and you're still encountering the error code, you'll unfortunately have to reinstall the game on your computer. However, before you do that, some users have reported that they were able to resolve the issue by cancelling the update and then re-running it.

Therefore, we recommend that you do this before you go ahead and completely uninstall the game.

In case that doesn't work, then in such a scenario, you will have to completely reinstall the game on your system. To uninstall the game, follow the instructions given below:

• Opens the Settings window. Windows by pressing the Windows key + I.
• In the Settings window, go to Applications.

• There, go to the option Applications and features.

• Search Forza Horizon 5 and click on the three vertical dots menu next to it.
