    Game bought in store (code redeem) shown in MS Profile but not XBox Profile / cannot go...


    Hello,

    I hope I can get some help here, after desperately trying to find help on support pages.

    I bought Gears 5 (redeemed a code). It runs fine but I cannot go online. The game always runs in offline mode.

    When looking for a possible problem I noticed that in my XBox Profile the game does not show up (account.xbox.com -> MyGames). However when I open the Account that is linked to the XBox Accout (redirected to the microsoft account) the game shows up in the
    purchases.

    Could this issue (game not beeing connected to the xbox account) be a reason for me not being able to go online?

    Any ideas how I should proceed?

    Thank you

    Regards

    :)

    Hi,

    thanks for the reply.

    This is the only game. However, I currently only own Gears and Minecraft through the MS Store/XBox.

    Also I do not have a console but am playing on PC/Win10.

    Hi,

    thanks for the quick response.

    Gears is showing up there in my Microsoft Account. This is the same account that is linked to my XBox Profile.

    I cannot find a way to directly link the game to the XBox Profile.

    Is this the only game experiencing this issue?

    Make sure your console is set to Online.

    1. Press the Xbox button to open the guide.
    2. Select System > Settings.
    3. Choose Network.
    4. Select Network settings >
      Go online

    Login to your xbox account and check http://commerce.microsoft.com

    Is it showing there that gears 5 is linked to the xbox account?

    Do I use the order number to install a game I bought on Microsoft?

    if you bought the game while logged into your Microsoft/Xbox profile then you should be able to find it and install it in your "ready to install" games or directly from the game's page in the store.

    the order number is only a reference number/receipt for the purchase.

    any redeemable code would be sent in an email to the email address linked to the MS/Xbox profile.

    hope this helps
