So, I just figured out (after month of having this problem) what went wrong in Windows 10 and wanted to share my new "knowledge" how you might fix it.
If you get error "0x80073D0D" from an app in Windows store, even though other apps work you might want to check your registry under: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Appx\PackageVolumes
Under that key, there are other keys beneath ("1", "2", "3", ...). If you had another HDD/SSD in your PC that no longer is present there, than that might just be your problem.
In my case, I had a volume "H:" configured in key "2". This was a temporal volume, because I moved windows from a small SSD to a bigger & faster SSD. The cloning process did work, everything else worked like it should but the windows store had problems with some app. E.g. MineCraft could no longer install. Other games needed to be removed and reinstalled (like Age of Empires) when an update arrived.
So what I did was removing (make a backup before you remove or alter anything) the key "2" (HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Appx\PackageVolumes\2) and rename key "3" to "2".
Also in key "1" I set the "MountPoint" to "C:" as this was empty, but I guess this was not needed, as the MediaId is also empty.
After this, I could finally install MineCraft. And I hope AOE & co also no longer have a problem with updates (I really hope that).
The problem might not necessary be a Windows Store problem itself, but at least a problem from the installer, that seem to have checked if all paths are valid and as volume "H:" did not longer exist it wasn't.
Please MS, fix that for the future. The Windows Store and it's installers are way to buggy for normal users to use them. And Reinstalling Windows (as often provided as solution) is normally not an option for users.
