Every time I try and download an app, why does it give me the error code 80860005?

[Windows Central Question]

Every time I try and download an app it gives me error code 80860005

My phone will not let me download or update any of my apps. Every time I try to it says "There is a problem completing your request". Then when I try to fix it, it takes me to the web browser and makes me sign into my account but it doesn't take me to anything after that. Does anyone know what to do?

Use a pc, go to windowsphone.com, sign in, look for the app and install it from there.

This might just be a temp store problem, but check if your date/time and region are set properly. Alternatively someone once set that turning on cookies, resetting the phone and trying again helped

This code can also indicate that you have to except some terms and conditions. Check if you got an email on which you have to react.
Or on your phone go to emails+accounts > and tap on your Ms account > and accept the terms and conditions.
