Game Pass No Man's Sky Cannot Save My Game

Hi and thanks for reaching Microsoft Xbox gamer's community. My name is Josef.
I'm an Independent Advisor and a Microsoft Xbox user like you.

Hope you're doing great today BenjaminS988754

Buddy, may I know if this happens only with no man's sky?
Your Xbox PC app is installed on C: drive or a different drive? If it's on a different drive, please move it to C: again

In the meantime try this;

Open Settings, click Update and Security and then Windows Update;

Click Check for Updates;

Click the Download and Install Now option, if available (Install optional updates as well)

Also, check the Microsoft Store for any updates on the Xbox apps and its services and update everything too.

Now, sign out from your account on both Xbox app and Microsoft Store and do this:

Go to windows settings > apps > search for gaming services app > click on it and select advanced options.

After that, click repair and then reset

Then do the same for the Xbox app:

Go to windows settings > apps > search for Xbox app > click on it and select advanced options.

After that, click repair and then reset

Do the previous for no man's sky app.

Finally do this:

Step 1: Open the Run window by pressing Windows + R key.

Step 2: Input WSReset.exe in the Run window and click OK.

Step 3: Then a command prompt window will appear. After a few seconds, Windows Store will open.

Sign in again on both Microsoft store and Xbox app with your account and install minecraft launcher

Also, in case you're able to do it. Could you sign in with a different account on the game and see if the issue persists with every user?

I'll be waiting for your answers, greetings from another Microsoft user

As far as I'm aware No Man's Sky on Game Pass doesn't use a locale save file. Even if it did, it would be unlikely to be compatible with the Steam version of game.

On the account where the corruption occurred, navigate to C:\Users\NAME\Saved Games\GAME where NAME is your username and
GAME will be something like No Man's Sky in this case. Rename the No Man's Sky folder to something like No Man's Sky - Bad. Launch the game and see if it acts differently.

It seems No Man's Sky doesn't create a save there. I did find local save data elsewhere and deleted it, but the corrupted profile still doesn't work.

Ah, yeah may be a display issue in No Man's Sky then, which if so, I would let Hello Games know that the save date and times aren't displaying correctly, when you have the time to of course. (Contact - No Man's Sky)

I asked about the Cloud saves on PC and the answer to me was: Right now, as it stands with Cloud saves, you can't force update them on PC because you cannot access the cloud saves on PC and there is not an existing user interface to do so.

Safe Travels,
