Every time it's the same thing, every new edition of forza I have this problem and I end up having to run through an extremely high list of ways to solve the problem, but this time nothing worked, I tried: these 17 steps and NOTHING!

1) Make sure Date, Time, Time Zone and Region Is Correct.

2) Allow the game exe file to Antivirus program.

3) Make sure i are logged in with same account on Microsoft Store and Xbox App.

4) Logout from Xbox app and Microsoft Store app and login again.

5) Unplug VR/Windows Mixed Reality Headsets and external USB devices.

12) Disabled Steam overlay and other overlay application, disabled steam cloud, performed clean boot, closed all the overclocking and background applications

13) I didn't disable the full screen, v sync and graphics reduction settings, because the **** game doesn't even start...

14) Uninstall and reinstall Forza Horizon 5...

and yet NOTHING!!!!

Bill Gates should buy steam, epic or another company that knows how to install games
and start releasing games for them, because it's always a sacrifice to install games through the microsoft game store.

Yes. Other games are OK.

Forza horizon 4 is OK too. But I bought it.

And Forza horizon 5 uses Game Pass.

I can start Forza 5 on my PC, can not start on Xbox serious S.

I'm Samy an independent advisor. Welcome to the Xbox community. How are you?

Do you buy the premium edition or are you using the game with Game Pass? If you are using the game with Game Pass, you will not be able to play the game until November 9th.

I think it's better to wait for a patch fix to fix this issue. You've done everything I could recommend and maybe formatting your PC doesn't solve the problem.

In case you haven't seen it, this link has some things you can do too.

Premium Edition,

hello, at the exact moment the Playground Games logo enters, the game closes, and only with forza all the other games i have on the pc are running normally.

Hello, My name is David. I am an independent advisor, happy to help you today.

You could try to repair your game data quickly.

Go to Settings > Apps > Installed apps

Search for your game name and select Advanced Options

Select Repair

Go back to the Xbox app on your PC and try installing or updating it again

If the problem persists, try the steps above again, but select Reset instead of Repair

Please note that repairing the data will not delete any other data from the console. Please let me know how it went once you finish the process.

Best regards.
