    Can't download games on Game Pass (frowning face) on game's screen, but can install in Game...


    Hey everyone,

    I've got a bit of a problem here and if someone can solve it, that'd be fantastic.

    If I am taken to the game's main store page (by searching or other means), I am greeted with the frowning face instead of the install/download button. But, if I find the game in the Game Pass tab, I am able to download/install it there.

    Does anyone know what's going on and/or how to fix it?

    It seems to be happening with all games, though I've attached Age of Empires II Definite Edition as an example below. Previous games that I've installed launch fine. Plus, both Xbox and Windows 10 are fully up to date.

    Can't run any games on PC game pass. Error: "Something went wrong launching your game. Error code: 0x80004005"

    I just did the instructions you provided but it still did not work.

    I also tried installing windows 11, and now all games show a sad face and I can't play any of the game pass games.

    What can I do to resolve this issue?

    When I go to download a certain game there is a frown face where the install button would be.

    i had that, i just reset the app and it worked ok.

    Gameshare not working?

    Hi alexford2,

    he will still be able to play anything from the game pass, however, he can't download directly from the Xbox game pass page as only the account owner can have this access. instead, you need to have installed the game via your account to enable him to access
    any games on game pass

    Fallout 4 Season Pass Issues!

    I am having the same issue. Purchased Fallout 4 season pass from best buy. Redeemed on xbox.com BEFORE I installed the game. When I installed the game I noticed the Season Pass was not there when I Manage Game for Fallout 4 nor is it available to download.
    When I look at the store on my xbox for the season pass it just says Manage, not Installed or the purchase price. When I click Manage it takes me to a blank screen that just has my profile picture and gamer tag in the upper left hand corner. So I can't
    find it on my xbox and I can't download it again from the store.

    Dead space 3 on series x

    Ah, OK. Try this.....

    In the game's main menu, scroll down to "Downloadable content" and click on it, then scroll all the way to the bottom and click on the online pass. A new window will open, so confirm the purchase and you will then own the pass.

    To install it, highlight the game's tile in your game library, press the menu button, then choose "Manage game and add-ons", then on the next screen, press A on the game and choose "Manage installation......". On the next screen, you should see the pass listed under "Add-ons". Check the box next to it, click on "Save changes", then it will be downloaded and installed. It's only 108KB, so it will be done in the blink of an eye.
