    getting games from another person's x box

    Hi Marjorie,

    By any chance do you recall under what account the purchases were made through? The way to get the games on the Xbox One S that was just purchased is by signing in to the account that owns the games.

    If the purchases were made under their cousin's account, they would need to sign the account in the Xbox and make it theHome Xbox.

    How to designate an Xbox One console as your home Xbox.


    My home Xbox setting allows you to do the following:

    • Share games and downloadable content purchased from Microsoft Store with anyone else who signs in on your console. You can even share games downloaded as part of a subscription.
    • Share your Xbox Live Gold subscription with anyone else who signs in on your console.
    Also, Keep in mind that you cannot designate more than one Xbox as your home Xbox.

    Hello!

    Unfortunately if the games were purchased on his account then he owns them. Digital licenses cannot be transferred from one account to another.

  7. Hi, unless the Xbox you have is set up as the Home Xbox, you won't get access. Unfortunately if the other family member will not sign in on your Xbox and set it as his Home Xbox, there is little that can be done, as that person has the digital licence.
