Gears of war 5 wont launch, error code (-2015295486)

MattStogner · Sep 9, 2019

Hello everyone, I recently purchased xbox game pass ultimate so I could play Gears 5 early, however the game flat out refuses to launch and I get file system error (-2015295486). I have uninstalled and reinstalled the
game twice now with the same result.

I also checked the system event viewer and I see this error 0x87E10802: Cannot create the process for package Microsoft.HalifaxBaseGame_1.1.56.0_x64__8wekyb3d8bbwe because an error was encountered while preparing for activation.
[LaunchProcess], which is also related to the crashing.

And windows 10 is up to date.

Thank you.

:)

I have a different problem. I accidentally signed into the wrong xbox account on my first start up of the game (i had two). So I figured, it's ok I will just sign out and do it again. Now, the game won't load past the first screen where you sign in. I hit
enter: says "Failed to sign in, try again later"

I rebooted the game. Same issue. Tried logging into my xbox account on the app. Still not working. Restarted pc twice. Still not working. I basically have an unplayable game now. Trying to reinstall. If this don't work, I'm refunding this piece of garbage.

There are fixes being worked on.

Hopefully they release a patch soon to solve this error for you.
