Comment on Xbox's new policy — say goodbye to unofficial accessories from November thanks to error '0x82d60002'

Ah yes the infamous and completely utterly useless 0x8 hex Microsoft errors.

If I had a nickel for every time I encountered one, I’d have paid Microsoft to properly document what they actually mean, instead of spending 2 years finding some ye olde ass archived help request where some ancient wizard sys admin gives the answer after the default and also equally useless MSFT Associate reply of “Did you try DISM or try to reinstall windows?”

  oh it doesn’t work? You definitely need to run
  
  chkdsk /f c:
  
  Wait this doesn’t work either? Then download our utterly useless software that will only run chkdsk while showing you ads and has a paywall after you click “apply” because it’s a fake “free” app that does nothing targeted to your grandma and step uncle

By the way the poor ms employee probably doesn’t know what any of them mean they were just generated by ms devs in the other MS building 63 floors below ground where they use infrared light to grow new developers in the bill gates soil

A lot of the answerers who do that are paid per-answer (with a bonus for accepting) iirc, so they’re incentivised to essentially auto-reply.

I mean to be fair, those errors arent really meant for you (the end user) in the first place.
