Direct answer
On the covered Xbox console, 0x87E0000F means a game or app installation/update stopped. Xbox publishes a page per error code and has none for this one in its own sitemap, so treat the meaning here as unconfirmed and check it against Xbox support directly. First, check service status, storage and queue.

Stop for smoke, arcing, burning odor, uncontrolled water, gas odor, battery swelling, extreme heat or any condition the manufacturer directs to professional service.
