Windows 10: Microsoft Store Freezing and Crashing when attempting to download Xbox (Beta)

Hi,

I've been having issues with downloading games through the Xbox app which culminated with the app permanently hanging on the splash screen, so I attempted to uninstall/reinstall it. The uninstall went smoothly, but now any time i attempt to download the app on the Microsoft Store, it freezes and crashes. Help would be appreciated ASAP!

Microsoft Store / Xbox PC (beta) - Download Speed

Hello !

I have a Problem with a xbox pc (beta) / microsoft store.

When im trying to download the game, now is the blair witch i have drops to 0kb/s. Normally downloading game with around 7mb/s for few seconds, then drop again to 0 for some time, and that's over and over again.

Ill just say that i allready tried this solusion:

Go to start > type ‘settings’ > launch the Settings page

1. Navigate to Windows Update > select Advanced Options
2. Go to Delivery Optimisation > select Advanced Options
3. Now, you need to simply enable the option ‘Limit how much bandwidth is used for downloading updates in the background’ and take the slider to 100% .

By doing this, you’ll disable the Windows 10’s Dynamic Download optimization feature which automatically limits your download speed.
The next step is to download it again from the Microsoft Store. Keep in mind that this workaround applies only to the Store and won’t speed up third-party game downloads.
If you’re still experiencing
slow download issues after following the instructions above, restart your modem/router and then run the
WSRESET.EXE command. Go to Start > type WSRESET.EXE and hit Enter.

After that when i start download again from the beginning, speed was fine untill it reach 1,5gb then problem came back .

Ill also say i didint get this problem with downloading Gears 1 and 4, also Sea of theves. Just problem is with few games, like Blair Witch, Metro / i didint try more.

 

Microsoft store game pass and Xbox game pass (Beta)

So I have 'game pass' for the Microsoft store that allows me to download and play the pretty much the same games that are on 'Xbox game' pass (Beta) but for some reason the beta app asks me to subscribe/pay again for the for the Xbox game pass (Beta).
Surely if I have paid £7.99 for the Microsoft store version I should get access to the Beta version? They are both called 'Xbox game pass'. Any help?
