    Internet Disconnect on Game Launch (Xbox App for PC)


    Hello,

    Around a year and a half ago, I posted about a strange issue with The Outer Worlds on game pass. When I launched the game, my internet adapter would be disconnected, preventing me from signing in to xbox live and playing the game: https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/xbox/forum/xba_wowpc-xba_gowpc/outer-worlds-pc-microsoft-store-internet/2058f857-0612-457e-93cf-78b1457cfece

    There's no way to restore internet connectivity other than restarting my PC.

    I tried all the fixes, including uninstall/reinstall of the game, MS store, and the xbox app; repairing the app; disabling antivirus and all other software when launching; and spending 12+ hours online with MS support as well as the game dev's support. No one could figure it out and I don't see other posts from people with similar issues.

    I long since gave up on Outer Worlds, but I'm now having the same issue with other games, too (most recently, Wasteland 3). Launch the game and immediately internet driver is disconnected and I'm offline until I restart my system.

    Just checking here one more time to see if anyone has experience with this issue. Since it affects multiple games on the Xbox PC app, and I've never had with problem with any other game launcher, it seems to be a problem with Xbox PC. I'm tired of the general jankiness of the software and will be refunding my gamepass if I can't get this solved.

    Thanks in advance!

    :)

    While still connected to the internet, Leave the xbox app open then disconnect from the internet and see if you can launch the game.

    Forza 5: Invalid Profile

    You're correct and yes, you can try these steps:

    1) Make sure your PC and Xbox App Offline Permissions are set to ON.

    Open the Microsoft store.

    Click on your profile Image and then click settings.

    Make sure your Offline Permissions is set to ON

    - Launch Xbox App > Settings > General > Offline Permissions.

    2) Disconnect your PC from the internet.

    3) Go to your Windows 10 Settings -> Storage -> Apps & games ->Forza Horizon 4 ->Advanced Options ->Select the "Reset" button.

    4) Start the game, start playing for a few minutes to create a new local save.

    5) Connect back to the internet.

    Yes, the only way around at the moment is to disconnect from the internet, launch flight simulator, then connect to the net as soon as the game launches, otherwise I get "Insert disc" (xbox app looking for a license?). So I had to do it again, quickly plugging back ethernet as the sim launched.

    This is crazy stuff. It needs to be sorted asap.

    Cheers
