    I made an open-source tool to fix XBOX PC Game Pass profiles missing from G Hub


    G Hub often fails to detect games installed through the XBOX app on PC. When that happens, you can’t create profiles that activate automatically when those games launch.

    I made a free, open-source Windows tool that scans your XBOX/Game Pass installations, finds the actual game executables, and adds missing games to a copy of your G Hub database.

    It can:

    • ⁠Detect XBOX games installed on C: or other drives
    • ⁠Find standard and custom XBOX installation folders
    • ⁠Use each game’s MicrosoftGame.config manifest where available
    • ⁠Show which games are already registered in G Hub and which are missing
    • ⁠Create the required G Hub application and profile records
    • ⁠Add an executable manually for games with unusual layouts
    • ⁠Run a SQLite integrity check before reporting success

    It never modifies game files or overwrites your original G Hub database. Instead, it creates a separate fixed copy for you to review and install manually.

    GitHub, source and download:

    ---

    I originally built it for Halo through PC Game Pass, which wasn’t appearing in G Hub at all. After installing the generated database, the game appeared correctly and its profile activated automatically when it launched.

    The tool is a standalone Windows EXE with no installer, Python or PowerShell required. The complete C# source is public, and release builds are produced through GitHub Actions with a SHA-256 checksum.

    This is an early release, so please:

    1. ⁠Close G Hub completely before using it.
    2. ⁠Back up %LOCALAPPDATA%\LGHUB\settings.db.
    3. ⁠Test the generated database and report any games the scanner handles incorrectly.

    The EXE is currently unsigned, so Windows SmartScreen or antivirus software may warn about an unfamiliar download. You can inspect the source, verify the checksum, or build it yourself from the repository.

    This project is unofficial and isn’t affiliated with Logitech or Microsoft.

    Full disclosure: the tool was developed with help from GPT-5.6 Sol. The complete source is available for anyone who wants to inspect exactly what it reads and changes.

    Hi SörenD,

    If that is the only game you cannot install from the Xbox app (Beta) or from the Microsoft Store using your Xbox Game Pass for PC (Beta), even after trying everything listed on this thread, then I'd recommend submitting feedback to the Feedback Hub app available
    on Windows 10. Please use the built-in feedback tool within the Xbox app (Beta) to help report this issue so the right teams can find a solution. Just click on your profile photo and select “Feedback” from the dropdown menu to open Feedback Hub. Feedback
    Hub enables you to provide feedback about Windows and apps by sharing your suggestions or problems.

    The Feedback Hub is the best place to report issues with the Xbox app (Beta) or the Xbox Game Pass for PC (Beta).

    I hope this helps!

    Wasteland 2 - Game Pass for PC Save Issue

    Hi BA T0W3R5,

    I'm sorry to hear about this save issue with these two games. In it's current state, the Xbox (Beta) app for PC doesn't give you a choice on what drive to save the progress or game to. From what I've seen, games installed from the app or available
    to download from the Microsoft Store through the Xbox Game Pass for PC subscription are under the same program interface so it seems everything saves under the default drive that the OS is saved on and it does not allow permissions to configure the files.

    I recommend using the built-in feedback tool within the Xbox (Beta) app to help us better understand the issue you are facing. Just click on your profile photo and select “Feedback” from the dropdown menu to open Feedback Hub. Feedback Hub enables
