Hi,
I checked on the error code and found what might be a solution:
Reference:
I can't install an app on my pc it says error code 0x80080206 - Microsoft Community
If you still are having issues after trying the above then please post back.
I checked on the error code and found what might be a solution:
This error code is usually displayed when windows is unable to determine if you are using a genuine version of Windows. Since, you are getting this error when trying to install an app, I would suggest you try these steps and check:
Method 1: Modern app troubleshooter
This issue could also be caused due to an app error. So, I would suggest you to download and run the Modern app troubleshooter to fix any app errors. You can download it here:
Link Removed
Method 2: Reset store cache and check
If you are unable to install any apps, you can try resetting the store cache and then try to install and check. Refer these steps:
a) Press Windows key +R, type “WSReset” and press enter
b) Check if it takes you to a store page which displays that the cache has been reset
c) Now try to install the app and check.

Thanks David, yup that's the same download. I wonder why your having such issues. Try this, type command prompt in search and when it comes up right click on it and click run as admin. Type:
sfc /scannow
Press enter and await results. If it finds any corrupt files within Windows it will try and fix them.

Similar to the System File Checker is the DISM Tool. This will, if possible, download files to repair missing or corrupt data. Opn the admin command prompt and type:Hi guys i try all of this ways but i have that problem yet plz help me tnx!
DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth
Press enter and await results.
