Advanced Installation and Management MISSING - Xbox App

Thanks for your reply.



However, through subsequent attempts and inquiries, I think that the computer with the "advanced installation" problem has a problem with the operation of the Xbox app before the "advanced installation" is enabled, rather than the Xbox Insider itself.



My computers in question were unable to successfully create a desktop shortcut to the game before and after enabling "Advanced Installation and Management Features". And the top of the app will prompt an error, and clicking it will jump to Microsoft's error 0x80073d26 page. (Although it does not affect the main functions of the app, such as downloading and running games)



And my 4th PC running the Xbox "Advanced Install" succeeded, it had no errors before and after enabling the "Advanced Install and Management Features" and successfully created the shortcut. By the way, I've already tried "Reinstall Windows from this device". still doesn't work.

Same over here. And I don't have this "Use advanced installation and management features" button in the Xbox app's Settings/General.

The above issue occurred on a fresh install of Windows 11 Pro.

I was able to "fix" the issue by unenrolling from Xbox Insider Hub's Windows Gaming. I then uninstalled the Xbox app. I restarted my machine. I then re-enrolled back in the Windows Gaming Preview. I reinstalled the Xbox App. I still had the same error, so I unchecked the option to "Ask me for install options on every install." Game Pass Games now install as normal rather than the advanced options under C:\Xbox Games.

Identifying the issue was seeing the option "This game supports advanced management features." on the 7 games that were already installed.

Advanced Installation and Management Features available for Insiders through the Xbox App for Windows - Xbox Wire

In conclusion,

I believe this is some sort of Xbox Insider Hub Preview issue with the Xbox App because the 7 games were installed without the option of C:\Xbox Games that I had prior to reloading Windows 11.

Hey there thunderwolfhowl!

Sorry to hear about the issue! Just to clarify, have you checked for the missing rewards in your Ready to Install section on your Xbox One console? You can check by going to My Games & Apps, then selecting Gears of War: Ultimate Edition. Press the Menu button
and select Manage Game, check on the right side for the missing items. Be sure to let us know the results after checking for the missing items. Thanks in advance!

Inside the Xbox app, go to Settings > General

Uncheck "Use advanced installation and management features"

Then close the app completely and restart. Unfortunately, you will need to uninstall and reinstall the game but it should work.

Happy gaming
