    Can't access game pass games on a different system user


    I recently set up Game Pass Ultimate on my PC to share flight simulator with my son and I. But after downloading it on one user account on the PC, it did not show up in the Xbox app on the other account.

    Both accounts have admin permissions, the one that flight sim installed on being a local account and the other account setup with this email.

    Both Xbox apps on both users are set up with the same game pass account (which is registered to a different email).

    I've tried running the .exe in the install path to no avail.

    Any help would be appreciated!

    :)

    That would mean breaking the LAW which can end up some serious trouble for Microsoft. EA isn't the only company doing the online passes. THQ, Codemasters are the other companys that do it. It's the same system really with PC games that you can't buy them
    pre-owned. You got to have a activation code to play the game. But of course the console version is restricted online it's basicly near the same thing. PC: Can't access game without a code. Consoles: Got to buy an online pass for online access or buy the game
    new.

    Didn't seem very clear on that. Nothing wrong with server shutdowns if the community is empty. Just do a pertition if you want EA to keep the game server on. They'll listen if a pack of people sign up on it. It has been done before.

    [/quote]It was pretty clear to me. Online passes don't remove access to less popular games, they don't remove access to anything. People make that choice on their own.

    Gamepass for Console Activated without Console

    You can cancel your current subscription at http://account.microsoft.com You may want to verify what type of Game Pass you entered. If it's Ultimate, you should still have access to Game Pass on PC.

    If it is just Game Pass for console, after you cancel you would have to purchase a Game Pass for PC subscription. It can't be converted to a different type of subscription.

    XBOX Games will not install - Error 0x0000000- Parallels 17 - Windows 11 Insider Preview - Mac M1

    According to the Xbox Game Pass for PC system requirements, the Apple M1 is not supported. However, I've read

    an article where a user was able to play both Celeste and Cyber Shadow through the Xbox App and Game Pass on an Apple M1. I recommend trying them to see if they work!

    If you're subscribed to Xbox Game Pass Ultimate, you will have access to Xbox Cloud Gaming which will allow you to access Cloud-enabled titles through supported web browsers.
