Beforehand, it is important that you keep in mind that this is a public community forum, so we are players like you, we are not employees of Microsoft or Xbox, so we do not have access to any user account or check anything from the forum. All users help each other with common problems.

I am very sorry for the problem you are going through.

Please perform a reset of the Xbox app, your Minecraft Launcher, and the Microsoft Store as follows:

1. Press the Windows + I keys on your keyboard to open Windows Settings and click "Applications."

Hello Rushmazing,

I understand how challenging this issue can be. I'd like to help you find a solution.

Can you try creating a new Windows user account (local) and launching the Xbox App from there? Sometimes this type of issue can be related to a problem with the user profile.

Let me know how it goes, and I'll be here to support you.

Hi Obsorby , my name is Rodrigo. I'm an Independent Advisor and a member of the Microsoft community and I'd love to assist you today.

I am sorry to hear that.

Have you tried to run a system scan?

Open the Terminal window by pressing the Windows Key + X and Select "Open Powershell as Administrator".

Type this command: sfc /scannow

Press Enter.

If any error is found, follow the prompts to fix it.

Then let's try to reinstall the XBOX app again.

Please, follow these steps:

1) Click Start, type Powershell and run as administrator.

2) Copy the commands below and paste them (individually) on the Powershell window.

Get-AppxPackage *Xbox* | Remove-AppxPackage

Get-AppxPackage *xboxapp* | Remove-AppxPackage

Then, restart your computer, then install the XBOX app, and try again.

Let me know if it works!

I installed the xbox app on the previously made admin account and the error does not appear there. This in addition to me not being able to open services.msc implies that it is my current account that's broken. How do I fix my account then?
