    Downloading any game that requires admin approval crashes entire PC


    I was able to download games that don't have the "requires admin approval" tag but whenever I try on games that do have that warning my pc crashes. My account is the admin of my PC and the Xbox beta app has the approval to go through my firewall. How to
    I give these games approval?

    :)

    Hey there Logan_K

    Thanks for reaching out to the Forums for advice on how to get around this problem you're experiencing. I understand how this could be pretty disheartening. I suggest reviewing and following the steps outlined in our Troubleshoot
    game installations on Windows 10
    .

    When you get the chance, give that a shot and let us know how that helped.

    Much thanks!

    Xbox app for pc can't download games.

    I just noticed that a lot of the games that are new for the pc games pass say admin approval required for installation give me download errors and the games that do not it will let me download.

    Xbox (beta) Administrator approval required for installation.

    Nope. Still can't download anything marked with admin approval required.

    Xbox App does not recognize me as Admin

    Hello, thanks for getting back to me!

    I used the Command Prompt and did what you asked, sadly it didn't work. To answer your question, this is system only has a 1TB SSD, all of my games download in there. The only issue is the Xbox app.

    I managed to download a game called "Mighty Goose" which does not require admin approval. It had no issues doing so, though this was working fine before. It's only with games that need admin approval, so the app is capable of downloading games.
