  1. Can't install downloaded game in Xbox app onto my pc


    I was gifted Torchlight III to play on my pc. I downloaded the game to my xbox app but can't install it. A pop up says We'll install this game to a new folder in the selected location. c: Unknown available. The install button is also blacked out and can't be selected. I have enough storage. I have updated everything. I have tried many other things that I have found in the community support but am not tech savvy enough to even know what they were lol. Please help!

    :)

    Unable to download certain games on Xbox App or Microsoft games store

    Hi there,

    I am trying to download No Man's Sky onto my computer via both the microsoft and xbox gaming app. I am able to download other games (Sea of Theives, Moonlighter) with no issue, but others (such as no mans sky) either do nothing (when trying in microsoft
    app) or Error code 0x00000001 (Xbox store).

    Steps I have done to troubleshoot:

    1. Uninstalled and reinstalled both stores

    2. Reparied and reset both apps from apps settings

    3. Uninstalled Xbox app and tried to download from microsoft store

    4. Went into services and ensured all xbox services are running

    - I have 2 instances of Gaming services. One is running and the other gives error code 31 when trying to start it

    5. I have reset gaming services and the app downloader from settings

    6. I have restarted my pc many times

    7. I have fully updated windows

    8. I have peformed a repair install of windows

    Nothing works. All other forms and questions I have seen only seem to generate the generic responses of

    1. Restart your PC

    2. Reset the app

    3. Update windows

    4. Repair install

    I have followed all of these steps and still cannot properly access services. Can you please suggest any other approaches to fixing this error?

    Many thanks,

    Aaron

    Xbox PC App Error

    We appreciate your response and cooperation regarding this matter. Based on your reply, it appears that you need to enable the Xbox services to ensure that the app is up and running. You may follow the steps below to enable Xbox Live services:

    • Press the Start button and type Services on the search box.
    • On the list of services, look for Xbox Live Auth Manager,
      Xbox Live Game Save, and Xbox Live Networking Service.

    • Right click on the service and select Properties.
    • Set the Startup type to Automatic. If the service isn't started, click
      Start.
    • Save the changes.
