    I believe Xbox Game Pass PC is being brutally abused by some people


    Recently came across a seller who kind of sells a year worth of activation for 5 USD or something. He obviously uses his account to log in to your PC but it activates Game Pass subscription and the end user can use his Xbox account / gamer tag to log in and play. All online features work. However you can't play without internet connection (even for single player campaigns) since the 'seller' account has obviously reached offline PC activation limit.

    These are the steps which I believe the seller did:

    1. Add a Microsoft Account (AC1) to the Windows PC with no GPP subscription (this is your personal account, skip if added).
    2. Add another Microsoft Account (AC2) to Windows Store with GPP subscription.
    3. Download and install Xbox Game Pass app on Windows.
    4. Open up the Xbox App and make sure to use AC1 account to login.
    5. Xbox App looks for other accounts, finds GPP subscription on AC2 and enables Game Pass (or probably Windows Store reports available GPP subscription to app).
    6. AC1 can now use full GPP access and can play all available games using AC2s subscription. AC1 can even use his gamer tag to play. All games can played including online mode.
    7. Only limitation is Offline Play. GPP limits it to some device number but it is related to playing games when no internet connection is available.

    I'm also adding the account which the 'seller' logged in to my test PC: prnqybhvbob5@mail.ru

    Xbox app on PC not receiving party invites

    I am having some problems in the game pass on the pc too, besides that of party chat, some games do not download, but I believe to be for being in beta mode yet.

    Game reviews

    They were probably removed for not being used enough, or possibly because people started abusing the system
    I thought about that too. Some people apparently like to spam positive or negative reviews for certain games for whatever reason.

    I believe that's why they have it set as only people who purchased the game can review it.

    Game pass for PC.

    It is being promoted on the main page of the Minecraft launcher "Give PC Game Pass" and the invite was generated via clicking on that, so I do not believe I have accidentally tried to give her the Xbox only version.

    Halo Wars error when trying to install

    Hey Steven R,

    I've tried everything on the list and also tried this workaround I found on the Microsoft Forums:

    https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/xbox/forum/all/fix-for-game-pass-for-pc-admin-error-0x80070005/84dab93d-3297-43e8-ba6f-2eec05e63b31

    Sadly, none of these have worked. I really do believe this is not a user error and some error to do with Halo Wars: Definitive Edition not actually being a part of the Games Pass. I believe this is the case because when you go to the Microsoft Store page
    for Halo Wars, the install button is replaced with "Included with Xbox Games Pass for Console", then prompting me to get the Xbox Games Pass for Console.

    Even though the game is listed as being part of the PC games pass, it seems as though no license can be granted for those users.

    Is there some way I can submit this bug as a report to be reviewed by someone with the ability to test amend this?

    Thanks again for all the help
