    Gamepass app not launching on PC


    Gamepass app not launching, no fix on forums, on third try to resolve via chat.

    Anyone else know how to fix the common issue of gampass app not launching after installation?

    Tried resting each app, changing region, reinstalling, updating computer, changing firewall settings. App seems to not work on PCs.

    :)

    Can't play any games on GamePass except the ones on EA Play for PC

    No, They are not. I had GamePass PC earlier and everything used to work properly but then one day I got notification that there is an offer on GamePass Ultimate so I upgraded but since the day GamePass PC subscription ended and GamePass Ultimate subscription started, I can only launch games that are on EA Play and that too from EA Desktop App only.

    Now, because the GamePass Ultimate was a 3 month subscription, so I can't even go back to GamePass PC until it's over.

    Any game that launches from Xbox app for Windows fails to launch and tried repairing and resetting the Xbox and Microsoft Apps, sign-out and then again sign-in on both the apps but still same thing.

    For Example, Forza Horizon 4 used to work earlier but now it does not.

    Sorry to hear it. Please post your PC specs including which OS and update you're using.

    In the meantime please make sure that you're signed into your PC with the same account you're trying to launch the game pass app with. If you do not have the Xbox Console Companion installed then download that and make sure you're signed in there with the
    same account as well

    Offer a real solution rather than the ****. Go look at all the other forms and see this is an issue for at least 6 months.

    your solution is terrible.

    Game Pass PC Not downloading Metro Exodus

    We have been reporting several problems with the PC Gamepass app since its launch, I think we should wait for support to fix the problems.

    Fallout76 on Gamepass wont load from my local version, it keeps loading the cloud version.

    No both on gamepass, its installed on my pc but when launching it uses the cloud version. At first i thought windows protected folders was not letting the gamepass app through and then it switching to the cloud version but ive added the exception and its still happen.
