  1. I can't install games (please help me)


    Hello and welcome to my personal hell the last 2 days. My computer refuses to install games from the Xbox app. I can click the install button, but cannot choose a folder within my hard drive to place the data. I was with the Microsoft support team for nearly 6 hours yesterday to no avail. I'm now seeking help from the community, thank you.

    :)

    MICROSOFT STORE : I CAN'T INSTALL GAME , HELP PLEASE

    Hi there,

    I think this is just a bug when showing the progress, so I myself would just wait and see what happens when it is fully downloaded

    Or you can cancel the download, restart the PC and then try and download something else after which you can start the download the game again.

    You might also want to to clear the Store cache (when no download is active) to see if that helps too:

    Let us know the results

    I can't install games to my external SSD... Please help!

    Hi and thanks for reaching Microsoft Xbox gamer's community. My name is Josef.
    I'm an Independent Advisor and a Microsoft Xbox user like you.

    Hope you're doing great today despite this Edwin

    Please try repairing and resetting gaming services :

    Go to windows settings > apps > search for gaming services app > click on it and select advanced options.
    After that, click repair and then reset
    Restart the PC and try again

    If that doesn't work try reinstalling Gaming Services using powershell command

    Press Windows key + X and then select Windows PowerShell (Admin).

    Type or copy / past the following command and press Enter:

    Get-AppxPackage *gamingservices* -allusers | remove-appxpackage -allusers

    Restart the PC and Open the Xbox application.

    A blue notification with the following message is going to appear at the bottom:
    "This app needs an extra component. Gaming Services is needed for playing some games. Administrator approval required. Install"

    Select Install to reinstall Gaming Services, once installed check again

    I can't login to Xbox... help me please

    Sounds like you may have changed your nickname or gamer tag? I would suggest you login to your Xbox account and verify all your account details. If you updated your gamer tag you may be trying to login with the old tag and need to change that.

    I can't login to Xbox... help me please

    Also try clearing the MAC address on the console itself

    Settings - All settings - Network - Advanced Network - Alternate MAC address- Clear- Reset

    Your console will restart after that. See if that helps you
