    I've been able to effortlessly install games prior to this issue. It started when I tried to install "High On Life." Once I started installing this game it told me that is was preparing, it told me the same thing 30 minutes later. I then closed the app and went to try again. When I clicked install, it told me that gaming services was not installed or needed an update, I clicked install and it said "Gaming services has been installed" after about 10 seconds. However, as soon as I closed the app and attempted to install the game again, I got the same message. I did the same thing 5 more times, r

    Unable to download certain games on Xbox App or Microsoft games store

    Hi there,

    I am trying to download No Man's Sky onto my computer via both the microsoft and xbox gaming app. I am able to download other games (Sea of Theives, Moonlighter) with no issue, but others (such as no mans sky) either do nothing (when trying in microsoft
    app) or Error code 0x00000001 (Xbox store).

    Steps I have done to troubleshoot:

    1. Uninstalled and reinstalled both stores

    2. Reparied and reset both apps from apps settings

    3. Uninstalled Xbox app and tried to download from microsoft store

    4. Went into services and ensured all xbox services are running

    - I have 2 instances of Gaming services. One is running and the other gives error code 31 when trying to start it

    5. I have reset gaming services and the app downloader from settings

    6. I have restarted my pc many times

    7. I have fully updated windows

    8. I have peformed a repair install of windows

    Nothing works. All other forms and questions I have seen only seem to generate the generic responses of

    1. Restart your PC

    2. Reset the app

    3. Update windows

    4. Repair install

    I have followed all of these steps and still cannot properly access services. Can you please suggest any other approaches to fixing this error?

    Many thanks,

    Aaron

  3. Gaming Services not installing

    Hi this all started when a game from my xbox app in pc was not launching, I tried uninstalling and installing it but unfortunately it can't install the game as I keep getting the error code 0x0000001, searched it in the xbox forums and tried some suggestions with it and now it spiraled to this that i can't install the gaming service, there was also a suggestion in the forum that said i should delete the gamingservice in the reg edit and i think that was what made things worse. Anyone got anymore suggestion other than a reformat? thanks
