Game launches using different profile?

DragonSW · Feb 18, 2025

I have two different profiles on my console (gme sharing). Every single time I launch a game with the other signed in, it ALWAYS launches with their profile and not mine. I cannot find out how to change this, and the only answers I have ever saw was to change which profile is the home xbox. Chnaging which profile is the home xbox is out of the question.

Is there any other way of fixing this, or am I stuck with having to have it signed out permanenetly? Because my friend can launch games on either my or his account (he is not in the insider program, and he is on xbox one, and I am on xbox series s)

No option or anything I have found fixed or even rempotely helped, and all google gave me wa results of people trying to play on the same account on two diff xbox's (which is NOT what I'm trying to do). I just want to launch games on MY PROFILE NOT HIS. And it's pissing me off that there's no option or setting to change this. Do I just have to have him logged out 24/7, or i there some obsucre setting to change this that google just refuses to give me?

And I honestly can't believe a multi-billion dollar company never thoguht of, or put ANY option in for thi issue s beyond me. Dissapointing they never once thought of this being an issue, even with decades of experience. Even google, discord, and every other service that you can use multiple accounts for has options to choose which account you're using, but oh no, xbox can't even have the most basic options of picking which account when launching a game and just auto picks it. Pathetic tbh.

Try using a different profile to launch the games and see if they still crash.

Try launching the game using a different profile and see if they still crash. That will help determine if they problem is caused by your profile or the console. Also check your network settings, the console might be having NAT problems.

I see. Could you try launching the game from a different profile, TomKhv?

Hi Killer,

Thanks for your post. Have you attempted to launch the game with another profile? Also, if possible try launching the game while connected to a different network. Since Black Ops 4 is an online only game, there could be issues with the connection that may
prevent it from launching.

Let us know how this goes, thanks again.
