 Make sure that 'Show hidden files and and folder' option is enabled.

Now Open the following:-
C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\eHome\Packages

Delete the Packages folder.Restart.

Open Media Center > Settings > General > Automatic Download Options >
Opt Manual Download > Download Now.

Have you changed the Automatic Download option to Manual Download option?

Hello, I have the same problem as pvsat. I did everything like you said, but
there isn't no "Explore" button. :(
