I built a new computer and wanted to play some of the Gamepass games I have on my Series X on my PC. I have gamepass ultimate. I installed Doom Eternal on the Window Xbox App, I launched the game and it wouldn't sync to my saves on the Xbox, it wouldn't even give a sync error, nothing showed up. All I could do it start a new game. I thought maybe Doom didn't work so I tried another game that I own and another and another and the same thing so I need help.

My time settings are correct, I signed in and out of the app, I reinstalled the app, I reset the Microsoft store and nothing is working. If someone can tell me what to do I'd appreciate it

[FIXED] reinstalled gaming services

so, i got a new pc, 16 gb ram, 1 tb ssd, etc.downloaded the xbox app, logged into my game pass account, tried to download doom eternal and then, a error appears, 0x803FB107

did all windows updates to my pc, all of the updates in windows store, didn't fix anything.

please help i'm gonna go mentally insane due to a virtual error

I am getting a error code as show above on dead by daylight Xbox game pass pc edition, it says profile state change how do I fix this

When attempting to install games to any drive other than C: drive I am met with constant error messages and failure to install (error code 0x80073d0d) however it instantly works on C: drive with no other changed settings. Have scrolled through the subreddit and seen others with similar issues when installing games or attempting to and have undertaken most of the fixes listed with no change in install behaviour.

Is there any way to change this behavior as I wish to install games onto my game drive not my boot drive?

Been waiting for Sable to come out for months now and the PC version is completely broken. When you open up the menu in-game, not only does it not show any text but you can't click out of it and you have to force close the game. Really disappointing. Has anyone been able to come up with a solution for fixing this yet? I know the game just came out, but hopefully the game gets updated on PC soon.

Hey I saw that Medieval Dynasty was released today and is now at v1.0 on Steam. When I start the game in XboxGamePass it is still v0.6.0.5. Now I was wondering how to update games? Is that automatic and 0.6.0.5. is now simply the latest version you can have in Gamepass or do I have to start the update somewhere myself?

I searched up my Xbox Live gamer tag on https://xboxgamertag.com/ and a 59 games I've previously played were listed, even games that I haven't played through the Xbox game store / game pass, this alarmed me - how is Microsoft / Xbox tracking my game history and why is it easily viewable by others if they decide to search up my gamer tag?

I signed into my Privacy & online safety page for my account, scrolled to the "Others can:" section and noticed that a lot of personal settings were on by default, even ones like:

Others can see your friends list

Others can see your game and app history

Real Name - Decide who can see your real name. <- this was defaulted to 'Everyone'

You can share your real name with friends of friends - Decide whether friends of friends can see your name. <- this was defaulted to 'Allow'

If you're conscious about your online privacy, especially in video games, make sure you check to see if those are turned off for you.

Hello, im having this issue for days, and only with xbox app and microsoft store. EA games app is ok for download and installation.

When I select a game and choose to install it, I cant select a file directory for the installation. And even at configurations, cant set a default location. The option dropdown menu simply wont show up anything. Its blank.

Anyone had the same issue?

I played For Honor about a month and a half ago, and all of the DLC characters were available with gamepass. Now all of a sudden none of the add-ons work. Anybody else experiencing this?

I am trying to test Ultimate for cloud streaming, but unfortunately it requires a controller. I HATE playing with a controller (i'm too old I guess). Wonder if there is an emulator or anything that will work with xbox cloud and act like a controller (mapping to keyboard/mouse controls).

Thanks

Hi all, so I tried EVERYTHING from running the powershell as admin commands: get-appxpackage Microsoft.GamingServices | remove-AppxPackage -allusers

to doing repair/reset in the settings

​

Though when I use the powershell command with -alluser, I get the following error:

remove-AppxPackage : Removal failed. Please contact your software vendor.

Deployment Remove operation with target volume C: on Package Microsoft.GamingServices_2.56.11001.0_x64__8wekyb3d8bbwe

from: failed with error 0x80070002. See http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=235160 for help diagnosing app

deployment issues.

​

It does finish if I remove -allusers

​

Any suggestions?

I'm trying to play with my xbox 360 wireless controller and the wireless adapter (third party) and the windows 10 xbox app doesn't detect any controller. Do you know some way to emulate it as a xbox one controller or something likes that?

Thank you

Hi all, been breaking my brain over trying to install games. Main screen says "Administrator approval required" and on the install screen it fails with either error 0x80070424 or 0x00000001

I managed to uninstall Game Services by using power shell as admin with this command get-appxpackage Microsoft.GamingServices | remove-AppxPackage

It failed until I removed -allusers from the end, then XBOX App asked to reinstall Gaming Services, I did, it asked for admin permissions, I gave it. Fail again with 0x00000001

I do have a removable drive with the encrypted WindowsApps folder on it and I did run out of offline PCs to use. I'm installing while online and onto a different drive though.

​

Any ideas, anyone? I do not want to rebuild my box... Also, the funny part is that the games I do have installed all work fine.

1. Install about 20 GB of the game
2. pause the download
3. open "Halo: The Masterchief Collection" from the start menu
4. try to start any campaign
5. it will give a warning, click ok
6. it will take you to a menu where you can select what you want (do that)

I made this post cause I could not find this on this sub or anywhere else and also because I and my pals were having this issue, maybe I'm blind and didn't see it but hopefully, this could be of some use to someone 🙂

I have the problem that my controller just stops working mid-game.Sometimes its 10 sec. in. So in the menu and sometimes it's in further into the game.The game is not the problem, this happenes on all my games.I already had a win10 reinstall bcs of other problems, it didn't change then.It also doesn't matter if I have the cable or wireless connect.At some games it doesn't even recognize the controller even tho steam loaded the gamepad configuration. Steam also sees the controller and the controller is setup there.Is anyone able to help? Would be great.
Edit: The controller also has the newest update!

Hi Everyone. I tried to play Mass effect 1 and 2... but it's impossible. They say on eaplay that a dll is missing and that I have to launch the game like administrator.. I tried plenty of things. Add dll, etc.. nothing happen.. please need help. 😅😅😅

Hey guys I was just wondering if anyone seems to be having this issue as of late. When I try to play some Gamepass games I have this really weird issue where my CPU usage for the game I am running will drop to about 0% and my game will freeze up. But when I click out of the game (onto my second monitor) the CPU usage will go back to normal and the game will run smoothly. But once I click back into it the usage drops once again. I've got a Ryzen 5 3600 cpu, 16 gbs of ram, and a 3070 graphics card. Running Windows 11, so it could very well be an issue with that and I need to jump over to the Windows Insider forums. Anyone have any thoughts, or have experienced this issue?

Edit: Happens in Psychonauts 2 and Tetris Effect

Hey guys, been having some issues with some PC game pass games. Whenever I try to play some games, the permission thing doesn't pop up and I can't get past the main menu. It only happens for some games and doesn't for others. It makes it so I can't play the games that it just decides it won't pop up for. Is there anything I can do to fix this? Also the popup does not appear after i minimize everything

hey, i recently got the game pass for my pc, and i went and installed some games, but when i tried to install Fallout 4 this message appeared, and now the same mesage shows up with almost every game i try to install, i've tried to fix it but nothing of what i did worked, i hope you guys can help me out

Only when launching FM 21 I get 0x80004005 error that says "Failed to login to XBox Live" and it only happens in FM 21. Tried reinstalling both the game and the Windows ( not being able to locate an already downloaded game is just ridiculous btw, I had to re-download more than 200 GBs again ) it didn't work. Do you have any suggestions?

one of the last updates to the xbox app has broken parties for me. it will never show that me or anyone else are in a party, and half the time it wont even let me into a party, either by joining or hosting. and when it does, it will remove me and bring me back repeatedly on its own until i restart the app. has anyone else had this issue lately, or know of any fix? I have uninstalled the game pass app, the old xbox companion app, reset the game bar app, and reinstalled the gamepass app and it has not changed anything.

There really isn't much to say, other than it just happened recently when i tried to play some Xbox Gamepass games again (after a long break)

Trying to install 'I am Fish' but when I click on the link I don't get an install button, only a button saying 'included with xbox ulitmate - join now'

I have xbox ultimate though and i'm logged in so not sure what the problem is.

Just tried clicking on a few other games, some are letting me install, for instance todays other new game 'Skatebird', but others are giving me the same 'join now' button.

I've tried opening 'I am Fish' on cloud gaming and that starts fine

Anyone else run in to this or know what I'm doing wrong?

I've only had ultimate a couple of weeks and have installed half a dozen other games before today without issue
