Hey Jnh

Thank you for taking the time to post this on the Xbox Forums. We understand that you are seeking a way to share your games across multiple consoles.

Even though your partner has already added his account to your console, and installed a game on there, without configuring that console as his

Home Xbox, you will be unable to launch those games without him being signed in.

Once his configures your console as his Home Xbox, you will be able to install and launch any digital games he owns, as well as reap the benefits of his Xbox subscriptions.

I hope this helps.

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.

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.

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.
