Hello Fatima

Thank you for responding, I have tried using the solution you provided but unfortunately it didn't work either.

Looking forward for your respond.

Hi RobedPrism3769



Thank you for posting to the Microsoft community.

I'm sorry to hear that you've tried several solutions and still experiencing issues with Gaming services not starting. One possible solution you can try is to perform a clean boot of your system. This will help identify if there are any conflicting programs or services that may be preventing Gaming services from starting. Here are the steps to perform a clean boot:



1. Press the Windows key + R to open the Run dialog box.

2. Type "msconfig" and press Enter.

3. In the System Configuration window, click on the Services tab.

4. Check the box next to "Hide all Microsoft services".

5. Click on "Disable all".

6. Next, click on the Startup tab and click on "Open Task Manager".

7. In the Task Manager window, disable all startup items.

8. Close the Task Manager and click on OK in the System Configuration window.

9. Restart your computer.



You may check the articles below that coudl possibly fix the issue.

After performing a clean boot, try to start Gaming services again and see if the issue persists.

We look forward to your response.

Good day Fatima,

The problem was solved after reinstalling windows.

Hi Janet,

I experienced a similar problem to David, and I did everything up to check for updates. No application began to download, only some pre-existing apps updated. I tried opening up the Minecraft launcher again, and it directed me to the Gaming Services page on the Microsoft store.

I'd love some help
