I signed up for a weeks pass for Sky Sports. After 4 days of viewing I received error message f200000 and the Now TV app failed to work.
I then had an hours online chat with a polite assistant who was unable to resolve the issue. I then asked him to make sure that my account was closed and no further charges would apply.
Next day 9th June I receive a message-
Thank you for contacting NOW TV.
I understand your concern that you're not able to watch NOW TV Content.
I would not like a precious customer like you to face such a hassle as this is not the way we make a impression on our valuable customers.
I know how annoying this can be be, worry not we will definitely get this sorted for you.
So lets see what happens next. So far its not Nowtv.

Getting this error constantly on my Win 10 laptop as well. Tried uninstalling the player, and VideoGuard. It's incredibly frustrating. It did work for a week or so, then the video started cutting out requiring a reboot to resolve it (different error code and I can't remember it), but now it's f20000 from the start.

As a few others have suggested, the best workaround for me is to just use Internet Explorer instead of Chrome/other browsers and watch via Silverlight instead.
So install IE11 (or whatever version is appropriate for your computer), install Silverlight, and just use Silverlight to watch instead. Just means you'll have to use IE everytime for now, but at least you can still watch on a PC. Also I think I prefer it to the player anyway, gives more information and looks better.

Anyone using Windows 8, Windows 8.1 or Windows 10 may find this useful...
It finally solved my issue after months of pulling my hair out with this rediculous error code F20000 issue.
Best of luck!

Had this error on Win7 64 bit,
Problem with videoguard not installing/running,
Found videoguard under C:/Users/YourUser/AppData/Roaming/NOW TV/NOW TV PLAYER/redist
Tried right click - Run as administrator, Error appeared, Problem with administrator policies preventing installation.
Solution: Open registry by searching "regedit"
Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SOFTWARE/policies/Microsoft/Windows/Installer
Double click "DisableMSI" on the right, change to 0 (mine was 2) then run installation of videoguard as administrator again.
