    Family sharing single PC


    I suscribed to game pass for PC. How can i share my installed games with other family members who also use this same PC, each with their own windows/microsoft account.

    Giving them my login info doesnt seen like a good idea since i have my payment info, gaming progress, etc. And i want them to have their own gamer profile.

    Thanks

    :)

    Normally you would need to put that accout you got with the pass, as its connected to your account, that the fasted and more relevant way.

    Hi Yorsh_2020!

    Thanks for reaching us.

    Firstly every family memeber will need to have their own personal microsoft account, then you'll need to create a family group. You can do it here: My
    Microsoft Family Account

    Once you have completed the group, then simply login into your your PC as the user you want to share the games with and open the Microsoft Store and download the game. (This also works with Movies, TV shows and Apps).

    Hope this information helps, have a nice day!

    Thanks

    That worked for most games. For those it didn't, i logged into Windows store with my account (within their Windows account), installed the games and then log out and the games stay installed. Now they can use their Windows store and Xbox live accounts normally.

    Best Regards!
