    I cannot install games from the Xbox App


    I cannot install games from the Xbox app and I do not understand why.

    I have tried all the steps on other forums but cannot get it to work. My error code has changed a couple times as well. Initially I was getting error code 0x80070005 and now am getting the error code 0x87e00017.

    I cannot access my WindowsApps folder on my PC in my D drive. Is this part of it?

    :)

    Xbox app does not work on Windows 11

    May I know if you tried installing the Xbox app from here and not Microsoft Store?

    https://www.xbox.com/en-US/apps/xbox-app-for-pc

    And, when you say "I can install games now, but I still cannot see any of the games"

    This is via Xbox app? Or are you installing the games from the Microsoft Store?

    Windows 11 Xbox App can't launch apps

    The same thing does happen and I cannot install these games from the Microsoft store either. These games direct me to the Xbox App.

    Unable to login to Xbox App on PC

    Hi Samy,

    I'm logged in correctly to the Xbox Console Companion. I can actually launch my games from there and play games as expected. However, when I launch the Xbox App from the Xbox Console Companion I am still not logged in to the Xbox App and cannot install new games or play games from the Xbox App.
