  1. GameShare saying I’m Already Playing a Game


    My husband and I have two Xbox’s we play on. The Xbox one I play on downstairs and he plays the X upstairs. We bought Hogwarts Legacy Deluxe on his account so he could play it on is X and I on our one. We didn’t realize we couldn’t play different games at the same time so I made my own account and did all the steps for game sharing.

    - His home Xbox is my one and my home Xbox is his X

    - I’m logged into my own account and launched the game but when I play Hogwarts legacy and he goes to play a different digital game on his X, such as Hell Let Loose, it says he’s already playing a game on Xbox One.

    How do we fix this?

    :)

    GameShare saying I’m Already Playing a Game

    Hi Sandra

    You would need to log out from each other's consoles.

    On his console, switch to your profile and remove it completely off the console. As long as its your home, you don't need to be signed in.

    -Press the Xbox button on your controller to open the guide.

    -Profile & System > Settings > Account > Remove account

    -Select your profile, and then select "Remove" to confirm.

    -Once done, select Close and switch over to your husband's profile.

    Then do it on your console too, your husband needs to be logged out.

    Long press the Xbox icon on your controller and restart both consoles.

    Then try playing again.

    Gamesharing

    Yeh I’m great!

    Hey how ya going, thank you for the reply hopefully you can reply to me again via this.

    I believe I did say I owned stw I’m not sure anyhow I do own stw on multiple accounts as my last and final resort was to buy stw again and again.

    And yes I’m tryna play on my other accounts. It used to work a lil while ago, it still does for ALL my friends, but now I can no longer gameshare, this has non stopped bugged me, I do play on stw to this day on my pc and it’s simply not gamesharing when I play on Xbox

    (Hopefully this is making sense I’m just tryna give a small backstory ahha)

    Looks like you need to renew gamepass

    Its not showing up in my order history, but I’m not gamesharing and have bought them before, also it says that I need to buy the games over again in the store so I can’t just redownload them again from there

    I purchased sea of thieves a while ago but no longer seem to be able to download it.

    Im confused now. At least as far as I can tell I do not see it showing up here. I did it for all possible emails it could've been. I went and found the email with the code and it says Iv redeemed it already and I am pretty sure it would've been on this account that I redeemed it on as I played it on this account. Maybe I redeemed it on a different one and then was gamesharing on this account? Would you be able to see if I was gamesharing the game or not?
