  1. how to make my game share work


    me and my friend were trying to game share so I could play a game. I followed all the steps and when I got to the point where I had to make his account my home xbox it says that I have already switched my home Xbox five times this year, but I have never even switched my home Xbox and neither has the other person that I was trying to game share with. How do I fix this issue?

    :)

    how to make my game share work

    Hi and thanks for reaching Microsoft Xbox gamer's community. My name is Josef.

    Hope you're doing great today despite this Eleesia

    If the home switches were already used you may need to wait until the date displayed in the message arrives.

    But, “If your console shows you’ve made five home Xbox switches for the year and you need assistance, select Help when you see the message, Can’t make this your home Xbox. You may be eligible to receive an exception.”

    Please note that no one can give you an extra home switch if the system doesn’t offer your this extra switch

    Well no if you are breaking the rules by using his account that's a no no

    He has to do it in your console

    HOWEVER if he reached his limit then no he has to wait for the year

    You can try and roll the dice by asking xbox assist locally on your consoleby can't make this my xbox



    Press the Xbox button to open the guide, select System > Xbox Assist, choose My Xbox Assist > Search, and then enter My Home Xbox.

    It Is random the counter resets on the oldest of your 5 switches pass a year

    The date you are seeing now is only for the 1st change

    It's best NOT to abuse your home switches

    How game sharing works.

    Yes. Since he owns the games he can play them as long as he's signed in on any console.

    How game sharing works.

    In order for you to access his games, he would need to set your console as his Home. You will only have access to the games while using his Home console. If he switches the Home setting to another console, you will no longer be able to access his games.
