  1. 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 trouble

  2. 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!

  3. Xbox app not detecting gaming services correctly

    My PC Xbox app on Windows 11 is not listing installed games in the side bar and when I try and install new games it tells me to download gaming services.

    I have already uninstalled and reinstalled gaming services, both with and without a restart. If I uninstall it, restart the computer and have the xbox app running when it finishes re-installing, games appear in the side bar, but I am unable to install new games. If I restart the app, no games appear in the side bar.

    I have used the advanced options of the gaming services, xbox, and windows store apps to terminate, repair and reset all of these apps.

    I have uninstalled and reinstalled both the xbox app and the microsoft store app.

    I have deleted the registry keys in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SYSTEM/CurrentControlSet/Services/GamingServices and GamingServicesNet

    I have checked that both my OS and gaming services versions are up to date.

    I am running Windows 11 Home, version 22H2, OS build: 22621.1194

    I am running Gaming Services version 8.71.12001.0

    Please help me to be able to utilize my game pass again.

    Xbox PC App Error

    We appreciate your response and cooperation regarding this matter. Based on your reply, it appears that you need to enable the Xbox services to ensure that the app is up and running. You may follow the steps below to enable Xbox Live services:

    • Press the Start button and type Services on the search box.
    • On the list of services, look for Xbox Live Auth Manager,
      Xbox Live Game Save, and Xbox Live Networking Service.

    The next steps should be done to the three mentioned services above:

    • Right click on the service and select Properties.
    • Set the Startup type to Automatic. If the service isn't started, click
      Start.
    • Save the changes.
    • Launch the Xbox App and sign in to your account again.
