Forza Horizon 5 weekly update error

NicholasArntzen · Jul 1, 2022

I launch Forza Horizon 5 and i get a message telling me that my game needs an update. It says that the installation is in que, but when i check in the xbox app there is nothing in the que. If i hit the download now icon next to the progress bar the game crashes and i get this error code: (0x8007042b).

I have had this happen to me previously too. I just gave up and after like a week the game worked. But I want to play forza NOW lmao

Hello again: If it still doesn't work, you're going to uninstall the game services using a powershell command, then open the gamepass app, ask you to download and install the game services again:

On the Windows search bar, type Powershell > right-click and select Open as administrator > Type the command: "get-appxpackage Microsoft.GamingServices | remove-Appxpackage –allusers" > Wait for the process to finish and then restart the PC, then open your Xbox gamepass app, ask you to reinstall the game services, install it, and try again.

If none of those procedures work, try to restore your PC's operating system via iso image tool, using that tool you will be able to keep your games and files installed

Hello, first it's a pleasure to be able to help you today.

My name is welcome to the community.

Hello NicholasArntzen, have you checked if you have the latest version of Windows installed, at 21H2, because recently came out the latest update to Windows 10 and 11?

See which version of Windows 10 you have

https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/see...

Updates are often seen as optional, Microsoft released major fixes this week, and make sure you have the Xbox Companion App installed.

If you haven't updated yet, click the link below, update, and make all subsequent security updates.

Download Windows 10

Download Windows 11

Also, make sure all Xbox Apps are up to date in the store, and make sure you have the Xbox Companion App installed, it works with the Xbox App.

Hi! Thanks for reaching out to help me. I tried to update my Windows 11, but it still doesnt work. For some reason it actually launched the other day, but then it went back to not being friends with me anymore. I have tried all there is to try. I have reset microsoft store, I have shut down my pc multiple times and I have reset the Xbox app too. I have even re-installed FH5, but yet again it does not want to play nice. I have also played FH5 since the release

Hey guys,

Warthog codes for Forza Horizon 3 will continue to go out weekly in waves to users who have played Halo 5: Guardians or Halo: MCC. If you have not received your Warthog code for Forza Horizon 3, please be sure to hang tight while codes are sent out.

We cannot guarantee which specific send eligible users will be included in, but all eligible users will receive their codes before the release of Forza Horizon 3.

Thanks!
