    Game pass sharing on child accounts on the same PC


    Hi,

    I have a suscription to the gamepass.

    I also share the computer with my childrens, I setup accounts on the PC, with Microsoft Familly settings and parental control (so, they have Microsoft account, liked to mine) . It's working very well.

    Now, I'm questionning : do I have a way to let's them play to the game pass game ? I'm unable to find any kind of setup or answer on this question.

    Bonus : don't have to redownload the game for every account.

    :)

    Thats because gamepass doesnt share betweeb pc users

    You must go into the parental settings on the parental account

    some work some don't on gamepass, its trial and error im afraid, do the following

    1. sign into childs account on pc.

    2. open the store and click the user icon next to thrre dots and log out

    3. log in to the store with your name

    4. download said gamepass game, if already installed it will be quick and should be done in a few seconds.

    5. log out of the store and log back in with the childs account.

    6. log off and then log in then try the game.

    I have some of the games shared with my kids via 3 different pc's from gamepass, but we cant play the same game together due to licencing.

    Unlike with the console, Game Pass for PC is not sharable.

    So.

    It didn't work, the app is installed with my account, though the one of my child. But the gamepass is not active (when I clic on "suscribe", the browser open on my account, with an active gamepass, but the app not get it)

    And, as long as the app is used on the other account, most of the games are not availlable on MY account, since it apply a age restriction.

    Clearly there is an issue on how the data are shared between the accounts.

    Thanks anyway
