Thank you! I would have never worked out that PowerISOs virtual drive was preventing me from updating apps on the app store

I know this is kind of late, but if anyone is getting this error and is running PowerISO, you need to disable any virtual drives. Start PowerISO, go to Tools > Virtual Drive > Set Number of Drives > Disable. This solved the problem for me.

Hi Kevin , I found your articles very interesting and would love to try them out, but cannot because it can’t connect to the internet. I get a message unidentified network, no internet connection. I have windows 10 and I get message (problems installing some updates) and the error code is 0x80070015. I also get a message that I have no ethernet, but it is plugged in. I have tried rebooting, shutting down modem and router and nothing works. I have no where to turn, and it’s been like this for over 2 months. Please offer some advice, I’m not real computer savy so your help is much appreciated.
