    From updated support page:

    Can I change my home Xbox console to a different console?

    You can change which console is your home Xbox up to three times during a one-year period. This period works on a rolling basis, starting the moment you change your home Xbox for the first time. For example, if you make your console your home Xbox for the
    first time on January 1st, and then change it two more times, on February 1st and March 1st, you will not be able to change it again until January 1st of the following year. The next time you'll be able to change it after that will be on the following February
    1st, and then again on March 1st. Please make a note of the dates when you change your console to your home Xbox so that you'll know when you can change its designation again.

    When you change home consoles, all device licenses for digital content will move to your new home Xbox. These device licenses will no longer be available on your old "home" Xbox.

    That is all.

    :)

    How can I add another profile onto my game pass ultimate subscription?

    Thanks for the clarification. Technically, there's no game sharing or subscription sharing on PC. The home Xbox feature where you can share your games and subscription only works on Xbox consoles.

    For PC, it may or may not work. If he has an Xbox Console Companion app on his PC, try to open it and check whose account is currently signed in. If it's yours, please sign it out.

    Home Xbox shares reset

    If you have already reached your limit, you'll have to wait the year until you can change it again.

    2 XBOXONES AT SAME TIME

    Two people gamer a on xbox a and gamer b on xbox b.

    Gamer a is the one sharing xbox gold, he will always have access to gold on any console he signs in on, he bought the subscription.

    On xbox b, have gamer a add his profile to the console, in that profile go to settings and personalization. Select home xbox and make this my home xbox. Gamer a will now share all his games and the gold subscription with gamer b. Now gamer b will be able
    to use the gold subscription on his account. You can only change consoles 5 times a year and you can only have one console set as the home xbox

    https://beta.support.xbox.com/search?phrase=home%20xbox

    Share these with anyone who signs in to your home Xbox:

    • Your Xbox Live Gold subscription
    • Games and downloadable content from the Microsoft Store
    • Games from a Game Pass subscription

    Account-specific items can’t always be shared. Some examples are:

    • Game-specific content like Minecraft Skin Mashups or Halo REQ Packs purchased with in-game currencies
    • In-game currency such as Minecraft Coins
    • Certain pre-order bonuses and special edition content that can only be redeemed once

    Hello Onyx,

    Thank you keeping us updated. Doing a soft factory reset also resets the game sharing settings. You would have to set up the

    Home console
    again in order to share gold as you were before.

    Hope this helps!
