    Can't connect to xbox live when launching a game

    But I should already be connected as the xbox game bar show me as connected. Guess there is some trouble with my xbox live account. Weird thing is when I launch sea of thieves, that is installed in Steam, it seems like there is no error with my account, I can sign in and access the game.

    I tried multiple fix

    • connect and sign in into account.xbox.com before launching a game
    • Reset Microsoft store app, xbox, xbox app
    • check connection to servers which is ok :

      I tried to look for a way to complety remove my xbox account from my PC or to unlink it from my microsoft account, and then to connect it back. But I couldn't find a way to do it.
    Any help would be much appreciated Can't connect to xbox live when launching a game :)

    Thank you your reply Anderson.

    I check my accout with the link you posted, and yes I go to my microsoft account and I see my PC game pass souscription. And the same account is connected to the microsoft store.

    I couldn't see update KB5004476 in my optional updates. I looked here to download it manually

    https://www.catalog.update.microsoft.com/Search.aspx?q=KB5004476

    But my microsoft version is 21h2, and there is no 21h2 compatible compatible update.

    I also did the powershell commands and the xbox application installed the xtra component. I restarted my PC but the issue is unfortunately still there.

    your problem may also be a connection with the service, something may be blocking such as an ant-virus or the firewall, have you checked? can add service to exceptions.

    I don't believe it's the microsoft service because nothing was notified in the status.

    Thank you for contact us! I'm Anderson, an Independent Consultant and a Microsoft user like you.

    good morning

    this message informs you when the account that is trying to connect to the xbox app is different from the microsoft store, another application installed on your windows. if this is the problem, just connect with the account that has the service active.

    check here if the account is active:

    https://account.microsoft.com/services/

    if this is not the problem, try the following:

    Follow these steps:

    Select the Start button in the lower left corner of the main screen and select Settings.

    Select Update and Security > Check for Updates.

    Select View optional updates, then select update KB5004476 from the list.

    KB5004476

    Select Download and Install.

    When the update is complete, restart the device.

    You should now be able to install, update and launch games.

    Are you still in trouble?

    Create a notepad file with the following name:

    "RepairGamingServices.ps1"

    inside the file paste this text (if quotes):

    "

    Get-AppxPackage *gamingservices* -allusers | remove-appxpackage -allusers

    Remove-Item -Path "HKLM:\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\GamingServices" -recurse

    Remove-Item -Path "HKLM:\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\GamingServicesNet" -recurse

    "

    Then, to run, right-click on the file, and run as administrator. then restart windows. then you need to open the Xbox app from Windows 10 that will be warning you that you need to install an extra component for the app, accept and wait for the installation. After that, Microsoft guarantees that you will be able to reopen and download Xbox Game Pass games on Windows 10.
