Windows 10: Game Pass games not launching on PC

I bought the PC Game Pass about one month and a half ago, and I started using it with no problems; my 3 main games were Sea of Thieves, Gears of War 4 and Dead Rising 4, and I could play them all with no issues being present.


About two weeks ago, I updated my GPU drivers and installed a Windows Update, and after restarting, none of those games would launch, they would simply crash not even showing the loading progress, except for Sea of Thieves which throws an error saying "This app can't be opened, visit the store for more information".

Here are the things I've tried:
-Repairing and reinstalling the games
-Uninstalling the drivers and Windows Update
-Changing both the region and the language
-Signing out and in of my accounts
-Reinstalling the Xbox Beta App
-Resetting the Windows Store
-Clearing cache and temporary memories
-Installing games on both my main HDD and a secondary one

As you can see, I've been trying out a bunch of things with no positive results, is anyone else experiencing this?

It is notable to say that there have been no performance issues related to other games (Steam, Epic, LoL, Battle Net, etc.) so this is purely with games from the Game Pass.

These are the games free with the pass.

However, the exact difference can be told by experts on the Xbox forum so suggest you to start a question there.

Game pass for PC not working.

I just bought the game pass for PC this morning after seeing the list of games, and the one i was mostly looking forward to was slay the spire, however when i went into the Microsoft store app and searched for the game, it said "owned", but when i clicked
on it, the install button was grayed out. And I had the same problem with other titles that were supposedly meant to be a part of the game pass for PC such as banner saga. Does anybody know why this is or if there is a fix?
