    So about two months back I went over to my buddy's house for xbox game trading and I stayed over for a few days and he knew I had Ark Survival Evolved but It was digital not disk and he wanted to have access to it via Game Sharing,
    I told him "No I'm letting Dalton(other buddy ive know since 2nd grade) have it for when WWII comes out." he acknowledged my honesty and all that and about a month latter went ahead and used my last game share without asking. Now I'm me and my friend are screwed
    because hes tight on money and cant buy WWII and I dont want my other friend to game share with me.

    :)

    Hi there,

    No one in the forums can assist with resetting a user's home console count.

    Now that the count has been increased from 3 to 5 times in a one year (365 day) period there is no guarantee that phone support will reset it. If you want to see if they will you can go

    here
    for the number in your region.

    Keep in mind, game sharing with the intent to avoid purchasing games/content is against the code of conduct, just as accessing a user's account without their permission is.

    Be sure to change the password on your account and don't have any console not in your possession remember your account password to help avoid unauthorized access in the future..

    Game share

    Take a look at the instructions featured on https://support.xbox.com/en-US/games/game-setup/my-home-xbox for designating an Xbox as your home Xbox. (I'm assuming that currently someone
    else has his/her Xbox designated as your home Xbox, thereby enabling the game sharing.)

    Note that you can only change the Xbox you designate as your Xbox up to five times in a one-year period, starting from the moment you change your home Xbox for the first time.

    Game sharing

    Gamesharing with strangers is a MISTAKE, you might get scammed and lose access to your account, you also might get banned when you gameshare with people from different countries, Gamesharing is meant to be with friends and family.

    Games sharing

    The Xbox One WILL allow for used games. You WILL be able to share your games with your family on the same console or if they're under a family account AT NO ADDITIONAL CHARGE. You will still need to purchase a new game if they aren't on the same console
    or under a family account, however. Look at it this way, though: Currently, you can't take a game disc & put it into 2 separate consoles at the same time. It's the same concept, but done in a different way.
    If this is the case, X Box One is dead to me. I currently can take my game from the X Box signed into my account in the living room, give it to my girlfriend to play in the bedroom under her account, then switch to the X Box in the guest room under any one
    of my accounts, and finally give the game to my friend for a couple weeks so he can play under his account. Seeing as there is only one disk we will not all be playing at eh same time, but it is MY game to do as I please. Under the posted guidelines I am merely
    "renting" the game purchased and have no rights to the content contained on the disk. I'll pass.

    Peace, J.R.

    but you can put a disc in any 360 on any profile without paying anything?

    Sharing Games

    Vern, I would caution against this in most cases. While it would be acceptable in the circumstance of family members sharing games like Rave mentions, I've seen others talk about using it in such a way that their friends don't have to pay for games or vice
    versa. The intended use of the Home Xbox feature is so a person who uses multiple Xboxes (i.e. at home and at work, or at home and at a family member's house) could download something at their non-home location, and then have it already downloaded and ready
    to go when they get home (and can play it while offline.) I could see the argument that using this so a friend can play games you've purchased might be considered a borderline form of piracy. It's basically gaming the system.

    It would be nice to hear an official word from MS, but as yet, I've not heard them specifically address the idea that some people have openly mentioned doing - setting a friend's Xbox as their Home system, so anything they buy will show up for their friend
    without them having to purchase it. I would be nervous about it, personally.
