    Gamepass App on PC stuck in "Checking for updates"


    Since today, I noticed that when I wanted to download a game, it got stuck on 0%. When looking at the download screen, I noticed that right besides the installation queue, was a "checking for updates", which has been there for hours, without nothing happening

    After being confused for some time, I tryed to start a game, which led to a "gamingserviceui.exe" being opened. The .exe stays open, until I manually end it in task manager, which sudennly makes the game start like normal.

    I have been trying to fix this issue, but non have worked (tryed to both restart and reinstall the xbox app, restarting the wifi router)

    :)
