    I have a problem that I don't know how to fix. Every time I play a game which I have installed via Game Pass and I stop playing, the game is still running in the background and, depending on the size of the game, is unnecessarily eating up my RAM. I have tried closing the Xbox App, I can't end the game in Task Manager and the only fix is to reboot my computer every time I finish playing a game. It's really annoying and I wanna know if there is a fix?Example:

  3. PC game pass

    Hi NLH1

    I'm Wilfredo S an Independent Advisor

    I can suggest the following directly from the xbox support page

    Troubleshoot game installations on Windows 10

    RESTART YOUR PC

    As basic as this is, a simple restart can set many things right.

    ERROR MESSAGE

    If there’s a download error, first try downloading again.

    If the installation keeps failing, in most cases you’ll see an error code with a message. These are generally 10-character codes that start with “0x.” For example, 0xC03F7003.

    FOR GAME PASS GAMES, CHECK THE STATUS OF YOUR PLAN

    To install games from Xbox Game Pass, you must have an active Xbox Game Pass Ultimate or Xbox Game Pass for PC (Beta) plan.

    Make sure you’re signed in to Microsoft Store and/or the Xbox (Beta) app—whichever you’re installing from.

    Make sure your Xbox Game Pass membership is current by signing in and checking the status.

    Make sure your PC is online. If needed, see Fix network connection issues in Windows.

    Xbox games pass on pc

    Hi Bat,

    I am Sumit, an Independent Advisor and a 2-Year Windows Insider MVP here to help.

    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.
