    Forza Horizon 5 - Won't Install from Xbox with Game Pass


    Hello,

    I am unable to install Forza Horizon 5 - Standard Edition using the game pass. When I click "Install" the download starts and shows "Preparing 0%" but never progresses past that point. After a few seconds, the install disappears from my queue and the store page shows "Install" again.

    What I have tried (multiple times)

    • Repair/Reset the Xbox app in Add or Remove programs
    • Uninstalled and reinstalled Xbox app
    • Cleared temp files
    • Running as Admin
    • In CMD prompt (admin) - wsreset.exe
    • Full PC shutdown and reboot
    • Update all Xbox apps
    • Windows Updates
    • Updating Windows Store
    • probably more that I'm forgetting
    Note: Running Windows 11 Home 21H2, OS Build 22000.318

    :)

    Games downloaded via game pass wont open(PC)

    I had the same issue with trying to open Forza Horizon 5 from game pass, would open the microsoft store to the "gaming services" page just to tell me it's already installed. Tried multiple reboots an reinstalling the xbox app. Tried the "repair" and "reset" buttons in the app settings for Forza Horizon 5 and after a reboot the xbox app won't even recognize the game is installed, asks me to install it again and then returns an error when I try (Error code: 0x00000001)
    When I try to open the app settings for Forza Horizon 5 from the start menu now it just leads to the generic apps window and doesn't locate FH5 at all.

    so like what I just have > 100gig of dead space on my SSD now? nice

    edit: I updated windows and tried installing FH5 to a different drive, it downloaded like 100mb of data and then recognized the game and let me open it from my SSD again. weird but ok

    Forza Horizon 5 gets stuck on preparing and then cancles - Windows 11

    This is what helped me and got Forza to download.
    1. Go into the Microsoft Store and search Forza Horizon 5 Standard Edition.
    2. Next you want to click on Forza Horizon 5 Standard Edition and you want to click Install from the Xbox app.
    3. This will take you to the Xbox app and when it takes you to the Forza game scroll down and look at the tab named "Included in this bundle" And click Forza Horizon 5.
    4. This should take you to the regular Forza Horizon 5 game rather than the Standard Edition, And then you want to click install and this should download the game.

    Hope this helps have a good day!
