Last week I encountered error code 0x80070057 while trying to install an update to the “Fruit Ninja” windows store app.
The steps below were used to fix this error:
- Run powershell as administrator
- get-appxpackage -name *fruitninja* | remove-appxpackage
- Run “wsreset”
- Go to store page and click install
Thanks to this post that helped me resolve the issue:

PS: I had already tried syncing the app licenses, but this didn’t resolve the issue.
