    (0x00000001) error or nothing from Xbox Game Pass on PC games only


    When I try to install any game from the Xbox app I get the error 0x00000001.

    I have gone through all the suggested remedies, from new users to using PowerShell to remove and re-add gaming services, to no avail.

    However I have noticed one thing. Other than all games erroring in the Xbox app, I can install any game from the Microsoft Store that is not included in the Xbox Game Pass for PC. Any attempt to do the same from the store results in it asking for an install location, of which I have tried several, all with ample space and then nothing happens. No errors, no progress update.

    It is also worth noting that the browser based store is of no use as it simply tries to make me pay to sign up to the game pass, even though both apps and my Microsoft account recognize I have it.

    I am on a 3 month free trial of the service, but with hours spent not being able to install a single game from the catalogue I will most definitely not be renewing my subscription.

    Has anyone got any idea why only Game Pass games fail?

    :)

    I have investigated further and found this thread helpful.

    https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us...on-my-pc/4937efe7-d8ec-477e-b80b-79154f2ee844

    In short, a rogue file was located on my c drive, simple entitled program, which was stopping the gaming services from running and updating.

    However, I was still forced to use the Microsoft Store app as the Xbox app kept getting stuck on 2%.

    After using the Microsoft Store I was able to install and launch a game pass game.

    Thanks for your help.

    Hi,

    I've already tried checking for updates, removing the gaming services registry and repairing it with no luck.

    I am a little hesitant to use the said creative application as my understanding is it is used for preparing your machine for Windows 10 and would ultimately result in lost settings / other application issues through what sounds essentially like reinstalling the OS.

    Is there a certain point I can exit the install once any potential issues are resolved?

    I find it odd that my problem only affects game pass games.

    Rest assured, as I said nothing will be removed from your computer.

    The problem only happens with game pass games because they use Gaming Services, usually, the problem is solved by deleting the files in REGEDIT, and then repairing the gaming services application, when this is not solved it is necessary to use the creation tool from Microsoft windows.

    At the moment these are the solutions that solve this problem, most of the time the windows creation tool will solve the problem, as it does the system reinstallation, so the problem is solved for certain people, and others not, and when the problem is not resolved it is necessary to do a clean install of Windows 10 or 11 if you prefer.
