The error message
0x800701C9
you're encountering suggests that there is a problem with the package file not being correctly signed or matching the expected Package Family Name (PFN). This issue most commonly arises due to the signature of the package not being validated against the system's trusted certificates or because of a mismatch in the PFN. Here are some steps you can take to troubleshoot and resolve this issue:
### Steps to Resolve Error 0x800701C9
1.
Verify Digital Signatures:
Ensure that the digital certificates associated with the
.cer
,
.pfx
, and
.pvk
files are valid and have not expired. You can do this by:
- Right-clicking on the certificate file (
.cer
) and selecting
Properties
.
- Going to the
Digital Signatures
tab and verifying the signature details.
2.
Match Package Family Name (PFN):
Ensure that the PFN in the package you're installing exactly matches the expected PFN. You can verify this by checking the manifest file (
AppxManifest.xml
) within the
.appx
package.
3.
Install the Certificate:
Make sure the certificate you are using is installed properly to the
Trusted People
store. Here’s how you can install it:
- Double-click the
.cer
file.
- Click on
Install Certificate
.
- Choose
Local Machine
and proceed.
- Place the certificate in the
Trusted People
store.
4.
Re-download the Package:
There might be a corruption in the existing package files. Try downloading the package again from the
Dolby Access - Official app.
5.
Use Powershell:
Open PowerShell as an Administrator and run the following commands to install the package:
Code:
powershell
Add-AppxPackage -Path "C:\path\to\DolbyLaboratories.DolbyAccess_3.22.10269.0_x64_rz1tebttyb220.appx" -DependencyPath "C:\path\to\dependency1.appx","C:\path\to\dependency2.appx"
Ensure you replace the paths with the correct paths on your system.
6.
Check System Update:
Ensure your operating system is fully updated, as certain updates might affect app installations.
### Additional Verification
Here are a few more things you can double-check:
- Ensure Correct File Extensions: Make sure all related files (
.appx
, .cer
, .pfx
, and .pvk
) are correctly recognized by the system and are not corrupted.
- Access Rights: Ensure you possess the necessary administrative rights to install the package.
- Check SCCD: Validate that the System Capability and Configuration Descriptor (SCCD) aligns with the package's capabilities.
### Contact Support
If the issue persists, you might need to contact Dolby or Microsoft support for further assistance, given that it might involve intricate details about the package signing and system configuration:
