  1. Cannot install Xbox App


    Good day,

    as per title, I cannot install Xbox app, neither via .exe installer (available here) nor via windows store.

    -When launching the installer, it just gets stuck at "Making things awesome"

    -When installing the app from Windows Store, it becomes unresponsive and needs to be closed manually

    Is there any way I can help your analysis (providing screenshots/log files)?

    :)

    Unable to install Gears 5 - PC

    Seems like Gears 5 needs to be installed using the Xbox PC Beta App. Please check if your Windows 10 is version 1903 or not. If it is an earlier build the Xbox App does not seem to install. i have this problem with my Surface Book 2 which cannot update to
    1903 due to an issue with that build and the surface line. This means i cannot install the Xbox PC app, and as a result i cannot install Gears 5.

    The store on a regular computer links to your Xbox App on PC which shoudl allow you to install it.

    Cannot install xbox app

    Please try downloading the app via Microsoft Store instead, not the .exe via Xbox website

    And, is your Windows up to date and everything?

    Check that please:

    Open Settings, click Update and Security and then Windows Update;

    Click Check for Updates;

    Click the Download and Install Now option, if available (Install optional updates as well)

    Also, check the Microsoft Store for any updates on the Xbox apps and its services and update everything too.

    Hi and thanks for reaching Microsoft Xbox gamer's community. My name is Josef.
    I'm an Independent Advisor and a Microsoft Xbox user like you.

    Hope you're doing great today despite this Paab029

    Is this happening on Windows 10 or 11?
    May I know if you tried instead downloading the Xbox app using the Microsoft store?

    Or which troubleshooting steps you have done so far to fix this, in that way I can advise you different things or how to proceed

    I'll be waiting for your reply, greetings from another Microsoft user
