    Game locks while trying to initialize


    After we received a new update the game started freezing as it tries to Initialize the game. The screen will also get darker before it starts to initialize. Does anyone know why this happens and is their a fix?

    :)

    unable to get microsoft solitare deluxe to run

    I have been trying to renew my selection to be advertise free - as I have been using. I was told to uninstall and then reinstall. I have done this and now when it initializes and I try and get started in the daily games, it locks up with a message at the
    bottom trying to run without adds. I've tried this a couple of time without any improvement so I am asking for help.

    Thanks for your time and consideration.

    Microsoft Flight Sim 2020 won't uninstall

    The Xbox game client application is terrible, it installs the game but locks you out of even read permissions to the folder location.
    While that's true and its true for almost every other Game Pass or Windows Store purchase, it's not quite the case for MSFS2020. On this game only the initial 1GB download is in the locked WindowsApps folder.

    The main part of the game can be installed practically anywhere on your PC and this folder is not locked as the game was designed to be modified.

    San Andreas Re-release is region locked!!!!

    Sorry to hear that you're upset. Unfortunately region locking is not initiated via Xbox but by both the country's governmental rules and the developer of the game.

    If it has multiple failures, it will throw on a fraud lock. This is time released only and takes up to 72 hours. If this is the case, if you try again while still locked, it will restart the fraud lock -_-.
