Cannot install any game through gamepass for pc

THExDR1ZZLE · Nov 7, 2021

I tried to install Back 4 Blood to a full drive and that has seemingly broken the ability to install any game on the gamepass. Started getting error code 0x0000001 on every install. then after a restart i am getting 0x80070424.

Support suggest this is an error with the windows updater being disabled. I followed all suggestions from microsoft and several not from microsoft and still have no success installing anything.

Edit: I seem to be able to install Microsoft first party games ojnly. Forza, halo, gears of war for example.

Try reinstalling the Gaming Services app on your Windows 10 device:

Right-click the Start button in the lower-left corner of the main screen, and then select Windows PowerShell (Admin).

In the Administrator: Windows PowerShell screen, type the following command and press Enter:

get-appxpackage Microsoft.GamingServices | remove-AppxPackage -allusers

In the same window, type the following command and press Enter:

start ms-windows-store://pdp/?productid=9MWPM2CQNLHN

Install the app on that page, and select Yes when you receive the User Account Control (UAC) prompt.

Restart your device, and try to install the game again.

If the problem persists, try an in-place upgrade.

If you have gamepass installed on your pc try launching the game through that

Farscape247

when installing from gamepass or windows store they are placed in the encrypted folder, the installation will only work for that one windows install, you have to install for each machine, they cannot be moved from pc to pc.

if you ever reinstall the OS you would have to redownload all the gamepass/windows store games again too.

All Ubisoft games on PC Gamepass must install Uplay and use that to download the game and DLC. Gamepass only acts for authentication

Thanks for the reply.

Oh you mean Ubisoft Connect - not called UPlay anymore.

Sure, it must be installed and connected to Gamepass.

But then Gamepass hands off to Connect for many things.

I cannot find perks in Connect, only in Gamepass.
