Cannot play a game I own on my home console

Hello @Vengefulbird63,I hope everything is going well!

Thank you for reaching Microsoft Xbox Forum support. I want you not to worry about the situation because I am here to help you out!

I highly recommend following the troubleshooting steps here:

After each step try to see if the issue is fixed!

First, please select System > Settings > account > remove accounts and then select your account and select Remove to confirm.

Then, hold down the power button for about 10 seconds, until the console shuts off, then unplug the power cord and wait for 2 to 3 minutes before plugging it back in and turn on the Xbox.

If the issue persists, please select System > Settings > devices and streaming > blue ray > persistent storage > clear three times > restart console.

If the issue persists, please try to check you games in the order games history in this following website : Microsoft account | Home

If you are still encountering the same issue, please select System > Settings > System > Console info > Select Reset console > Choose Reset and keep my games and apps.

I wish you a lovely day, and I hope this helps you out!

Kind Regards

Stay safe, and happy gaming!

My oldest son has his own console, his own login, and his own xbox live.

My youngest son has his own console, his own login, and his own xbox live.

The game should belong to my oldest son.

So how does this work? Do I want my youngest son's console to be the home console? Then when logged in as my oldest son on the home (youngest son's)console, download the game to the youngest son's console? Then let my oldest son go back to his console
and have him download the game to that console too?

Then would my oldest be able to play his game on his own console (not the home console) with my youngest son also playing it on a different (home)console, with each kid logged in as themself?

If your friend marked their console as a home console it is automatically removed as home console on yours the nest game you go online. Sounds like that is what happened. You friend cannot play any game they have in an offline mode without their own console
set as home.

You want it fixed pony up for gold.

is it possible to play with a friend on my home console while im on another console coop if only i own the game and im sharing the game with home console

Oh, and my son was playing Mordor. It is the home console, my game. Now he cannot play. He was playing and it disconnected him and he cannot play know. Which is odd as I was thinking you could use games on the home console in those situations. Gets
the message "For this game, you need to be online." I get that message as well for some reason.
