On my Windows 10 computer (and apparently others), the Windows Store app (or just "Store") will not start if the "DNS Client" is not running - Error "0x80072EE7".
Why?
The "DNS client" service is supposed to only supply DNS caching and name registration.
All other networked applications that I use on Windows 10 seem to work just fine without the DNS Client service, and I never experienced any problems disabling this service before - DNS is just resolved and cached by whatever DNS server/resolver that Windows is configured to use (via DHCP).
This issue is also mentioned at: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_10-win_upgrade/app-store-isnt-loading-it-gives-error-0x80072ee7/2455d884-b66c-409b-a288-a5f1cf9aa025?page=2
But with no explanation.
I would like to know this because I generally recommend disabling the DNS Client service in order to make DNS troubleshooting easier (one less cache to worry about).
