Error trying to start FS22 on both xbox app and MS store

when i go intothe FS22 folder - and launch the game from the farmingsimulator2022game.exe, it says that this app can not run on your computer (even though it says on both MS store and xbox app that this game will run perfect on your computer), contact the developer of the program to find a version that suits your PC.

Do i need to contact Giants Software to get help?

Best regards

Trond

Hey Trond!

Nice to meet you! I'm Darhyl, a fellow gamer. I'm sorry you are experiencing this. I am here to help.

If I may ask, does the error occurs in other Xbox games as well or just specifically for the game Farming Simulator?

In order to fix this, you will need to perform a series of troubleshooting steps. Kindly make sure to update your Windows, Device Drivers, Farming Simulator and Xbox gaming services, here's how:

For Windows:

Press the Start button on the taskbar, type settings, and then select Settings.

On Windows 10, select Update & Security. On Windows 11, select Windows Update.

On the Windows Update page, select Check for updates to see if any updates are available for your device.

Once the updates have downloaded, select Install now to start the installation.

Following installation, we recommend that you restart your device so that the latest updates can take effect.

For Device Drivers:

For the best game performance, make sure your system’s video card drivers (or display adapter drivers) are up to date. Drivers are available on the support website for your computer manufacturer, or if your computer system is custom built, on the video card manufacturer’s support website. Updating video card drivers can resolve game crashes, improve frame rates, and improve overall game performance.

For Farming Simulator:

Open the Xbox app for Windows.

In My Library, select the game title.

Select the More options (…) button and choose Manage.

Select Files and then Check for updates.

For Xbox gaming services:

Press the Start button on the taskbar, type store, and open the Microsoft Store app.

Select Library.

Under Updates & downloads, check if there are any updates available for the Xbox app or Gaming Services app. If an update is available, select Update.

Once you're done, try to launch the game to see if it works.

sry, its supposed to be a \ instead of +

No worries! I would agree that it's a bit confusing. Based on the troubleshooting step it should be in one sentence:

Type the following command and press Enter:

get-appxpackage Microsoft.GamingServices | remove-AppxPackage -allusers

Then in the same window, type the following command and press Enter:

start ms-windows-store://pdp/?productid=9MWPM2CQNLHN
