Xbox App on PC -> Doom The Dark Ages Update stuck

Hello! My name is Mario and I welcome you to the Microsoft Xbox Community!

I can understand your concern and please don't worry I am here to help you.

As a first step I would recommend repairing the app from your computer by following these steps: Go to Windows Settings > Apps > Installed apps. Then look for Xbox app then click the 3 dots icon next to it and select Advanced options. After that scroll down and click the Repair option.

If the error still appears I recommend you to follow the same process as before but now select the “Reset” option.

Please keep in mind that this is a public forum. I am an Xbox gamer like you and I am happy to help you with my knowledge.

For DOOM Dark Ages it originally showed a 60GB+ download. I restarted the store and XBox app and then it correctly showed an ~800MB update. Once that finished downloading it said the update failed. When I tried restarting it it kicked off the 60GB download again. When I look in my XBoxGames folder, DOOM Dark Ages is gone so it appears that on failed update it just deleted the whole game or something? I'll restate again that I have not made any changes to the game. I have just installed it, updated graphics drivers, and then played it.

Thank you for the information. Please try to follow these steps. Make sure to close any games and applications before proceeding.

Ensure that you are on the most recent version of the Xbox app and the Game

Microsoft Store app > Downloads > Get updates/Update all

Ensure that you have updated your PC to the most recent version of Windows, including optional updates

PC Settings > Windows Update > Check for updates > Install

Open the Xbox app on PC > (the game) >Manage > Files > Verify and Repair

Sign Out of Your Accounts (Xbox App and Microsoft Store App):

Open the Microsoft Store by pressing Windows Key + S, typing Microsoft Store, and selecting App Settings.

Click on Repair and then Reset the app.

Repeat the same process for the Xbox App and the Doom the Dark Ages Game

Restart Your Device:

After repairing and resetting both apps, restart your device.

Sign back into both the Xbox App and the Microsoft Store using the same email.

Check if this resolves the issue.

I was able to solve this. My Xbox app on PC showed a new update for Doom Eternal. But clicking Update in that app didn't do anything.

On opening the Microsoft Store and going to updates, it listed the Doom Eternal update along with a few others. I did a Update all and to my surprise all apps, except Doom Eternal got updated and it remained in my queue.

Then I clicked Get Updates. It found a few more apps to update and this time Doom Eternal update started downloading too. No idea what the trigger is though.
