Gaming services not installing. Whole xbox app bugging out.

Hello, my name is Fernando, an independent consultant. Hope you are doing great. I will be more than happy to help you with your query today. There are several possible ways to fix this error, such as:

Restart PC

Running the Windows Update Troubleshooter

Resetting Windows Update Components

Running a DISM and SFC scan

Using a dedicated repair tool like Fortect4

You can find more detailed instructions on how to perform these steps at the following links:

DISM and SFC are two command line tools that can help you repair corrupted system files in Windows 11.

DISM stands for Deployment Image Servicing and Management. It can scan and fix the Windows system image component store, which is a collection of files and metadata that Windows uses to install, update, and repair the system.

SFC stands for System File Checker. It can scan and replace protected system files that are corrupt or missing with a cached copy of a compressed folder or a source image.

To use these tools, you need to open an elevated command prompt (right-click Command Prompt and select Run as administrator) and type the following commands:

To run DISM: DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Restorehealth (note the space before each "/")

To run SFC: sfc /scannow (note the space between "sfc" and "/")

Your device is not fully updated

There is a problem with the Microsoft Store cache or registration

There is a conflict with a third-party antivirus or firewall

There are corrupted system files or components

Some possible solutions are:

Check for Windows updates and install them if available

Reset the Microsoft Store cache and register again

Temporarily disable or uninstall any third-party antivirus or firewall

Run System File Checker and DISM tools to repair system files and components

Reinstall the Game Service Application using PowerShell commands.

Had a similar bug before. Just uninstall the whole game and install it from the Microsoft store and not through the Xbox app.

Did Nothing

But this happend since I deleted game service (Some other xbox/ windows guy gave me a powershell command)

(cmd ftw)

that deleted game services but now I can't reinstall it because it just keeps loading forever

BUT NOW I CAN'T EVEN INSTALL IT AS A WHOLE (xbox game pass pc)

I shouldn't spend time and money on this if its still in beta and millions of bugs are still in the app

I was experiencing Technical glitches and bugs on my windows 10 PC trying to sign into to xbox app for about 3 days, no usual fixes from the xbox microsoft forums helped me at all. Anytime i would try to click sign in on the xbox app or after opening a game it wouldn't do anything. Just bug out a little. I first opened services and made sure all the xbox related services were started. You can open your services by searching "services" in the Search Bar In the lower left hand corner of your taskbar. Scrall all the way down and then right click each xbox related service and then select start. After that i opened the microsoft store and downloaded another xbox related app. To be specific Xbox Accessories. After it finished installing it prompted me to sign into my microsoft or xbox live account. After signing in with microsoft from this App. It automatically fixed all the bugs, and actually signed me into the xbox app as well. Hope this helps.

The way I finally got it to work was by uninstalling gaming services, deleting the registry key, leaving gaming services uninstalled, opening up the xbox app, and installing a game. Then at some point I clicked the bar that prompts you to install gaming services from inside the xbox app and it's been working fine since. If that doesn't fix your issue then unfortunately I have no idea

It definitely is frustrating to pay for game pass only to have it not work without messing with the registry or spending hours trying to find a solution to an obscure bug
