Xbox App/Gaming services won't install or function

I've been trying to get Gaming Services to function for days. Nothing changed in any of my settings to my knowledge but it stopped working. Xbox App tells me Gaming services needs to be installed to play a game. It attempts to install but does nothing. My App list says that its installed but it doesn't open nor does Xbox App seem to see it. In the General Tab of Xbox App Settings it says "There was a problem loading installation locations. Try again" No amount of trying again, restarting, uninstalling/reinstalling Xbox app or Gaming services app has worked. I've been through all of the troubleshooting lists, google solutions, reddit, Xbox help chat, I've given them remote access, I've followed their instructions, PowerShell, CMD. Everything for days. Still not functioning. I have no idea what else to try.

Issues with Gaming Services and Xbox app

Upon trying to install games on the Xbox app through Game Pass, I am being told that I don't have Gaming Services installed.

I have tried all the support info I could find including registry editing, reinstalling Gaming Services and Xbox app through PowerShell, uninstalling through the Apps section in the Settings (in addition to all Xbox related apps including the Game Bar) and reinstalling from the Microsoft store but none of the above are working.

It still simply tells me that Gaming Service isn't installed and opens a link to the store page download - when I click on this, I get a notification to say it has been downloaded and then the same thing happens.

Please can anyone tell me any new ways of trying to fix this? I do not want to repeat all of the previous steps to no avail again.

Thank you in advance!
