  1. Games won't launch on PC


    I recently bought PC Game Pass and, for some reason, some games will not launch. Donut County and Spiritfarer will not launch; however, the Halo Master Chief Collections does launch and work properly. It says there is a problem in the Microsoft Store for the two that won't work, but it does not show me what is wrong. Any help?

    :)

    Launching games

    Hi Wesley,

    Windows 10 is gamer-friendly by design. If an issue like being unable to launch a game happens, it can be caused by outdated display driver or other factors that cause conflict when launching the app. For us to better assist you, we'd like to ask for additional
    information. Please answer the following:

    • What build and version of Windows 10 are you using?
    • Are you getting an error message when launching the game?
    • Have you made any changes to the settings or installed updates prior to this issue?
    • What troubleshooting steps have you tried so far?
    • What specific games are you having issues with?

    We will wait for your response.
