  1. Cannot re-install gaming services


    In an attempt to fix an issue with live weather on Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020, I asked for support using their Zendesk. Their instruction was to re-install gaming services. When I couldn't do so, they directed me to ask using Microsoft Support. They instructed me to reinstall gaming services using the following commands:

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

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

    These commands were meant to be run on a PowerShell instance with administrator permission, as I did. This is the output of the commands:

    remove-AppxPackage : Removal failed. Please contact your software vendor. Deployment Remove operation with target volume C: on Package Microsoft.GamingServices_9.74.15001.0_x64__8wekyb3d8bbwe from: failed with error 0x80070002. See http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=235160 for help diagnosing app deployment issues.

    The Zendesk conversation occured here.

    cant re-install gaming services

    Would you please share a screenshot or tell me the error code you receive when trying to download Hollow Knight?

    About the Doom issue (closing before starting), please try to install Microsoft Visual C++ programs. Download a fresh copy of Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime from here and then install it:
    https://docs.microsoft.com/cpp/windows/latest-s...

    Make sure you download the correct version of it (x86 or x64). Restart your computer after the installation.

    Also, please download and install the .NET Framework Runtime :
    https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=2085155

    Also restart your computer after the installation.

    The last recommended download is the DirectX Runtime:
    https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/detail...

    Restart your computer and try to run Doom again. Let me know how it goes.

    Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register "$($_.InstallLocation)\AppXManifest.xml"}

    The error code above is for gaming services. You will need to try to reinstall it again, my friend. Please follow my steps in the first reply (without running the Get-AppXPackage -AllUsers | Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register "$($_.InstallLocation)\AppXManifest.xml"} command, but running the other one right below it).

    Make sure the Xbox app is closed when you run it.

    Do you receive any error message?

    And would you please test it with other games to see if this is happening only with Doom or other games too if possible?
