Application Center Error Message Reference
How to Use This Reference
This reference consists of two error message tables with links to Microsoft Support Online. The tables list most of the common Application Center error messages in ascending order of their HRESULTs. By clicking on the HRESULT, you can go to Microsoft Support Online for that specific error message. If no article or reference has been written for the specific error, you will be brought to a default page with more general support information.
Search Support Online Web Site
You can search the Microsoft Support Online Web site for a specific error message by entering an HRESULT in the text box below. An HRESULT is an hexadecimal value that identifies an error message, for example 0x800706BA. Enter only the last part of the HRESULT, for example 800706BA.
The values entered must be 8 characters long and begin C, c, or 8, and have as their third and forth characters (facility code) 00, 04, 07, 08, 0C, 13, or 14. |
