Cannot share game pass ultimate on pc with my family

Game Pass Ultimate benefits can only be shared on consoles. You cannot gain any benefits or use on PC unless you are signed into the account that purchased Game Pass Ultimate.

I have found a solution to the PC game pass sharing problem.

Here are the steps I used to play game pass on pc with the membership belonging to someone else in my family.

1. Download the xbox beta app on windows.

2. Log in on the windows store on your pc with the account that purchased the game pass ultimate subscription.

3. Open the xbox beta app, you should be able to log in with any xbox account, I think.

4. When you have logged in with your xbox account click on your gamertag image in the app and then click again on your gamertag name, you shoule now see a menu with the game pass ownership and the gamertag of who bought it and the xbox live account that
can play the games above that, there you can also see when your subscription ends.

I wonder why no microsoft agents/ moderators on the forum know this.

Be free to share this method with anyone.

I hope this helped.

Hello PowerFlunky8837!

Thanks for reaching out to Xbox forums support.

Unfortunately you wouldn't be able to share Ultimate Game Pass on a PC.

Thank you for your quick response.

So it is not possible to share Game Pass PC if I understand it correctly?

The question then is, why can't we share Game Pass on PC?

We have two xbox's and can share on those, but we can't share on one PC with two separate logins.

Doesn't make any sense so it would be good to know why the decision for it not to work on PC was made? Are there plans to make sharing on PC happen?
