    Hello dear Gamer, first it's a pleasure to be able to help you today.

    My name is Vinicius.

    I am a gamer and independent advisor on the XBOX community platform.

    Hey kimgydemand 22, how are you today? Hope you're well.

    Try to delete that 1,2gb file.

    Then, First, make sure your windows and all its services are up to date:

    Open Settings, click Update and Security and then Windows Update;

    Click Check for Updates;

    Click the Download and Install Now option, if available;

    Then try this:

    Go to windows settings > apps > search for gaming services app > click on it and select advanced options.

    After that click repair and then restore, open the app and try again.

    Now, go to the xbox app, and try to download the MFS again.

    Xbox on Windows 10 set as home xbox

    Hi, there is an option similar to the home xbox on windows 10, but it's not from the Xbox app, it's in the Microsoft store app. To set it, launch the Microsoft store app, then goto settings - then find offline permissions and turn it on.

    Xbox app wont load for PC?

    Clear the Microsoft Store cache

    Press Windows + R to launch Run, type wsreset.exe, and hit Enter.

    Once the reset process is finished, restart your PC and then check if the Windows Store App works as it should.

    The Xbox App depends on the Microsoft Store App to run properly. So, if there is something wrong with the Store app, many apps won’t launch or won’t download anything.

    In this case, resetting the Store cache can fix the problem, so make sure you do that by following the steps above.

    Minecraft Bedrock (PC) Won't let me buy a realm.

    Hello Smeepis,

    Thank you for reaching out to us about your issue!

    Are you still experiencing this issue? Are you presented with this same error when trying to purchase anything through Minecraft or through the Microsoft Store app?

    We suggest that you first make sure that the Microsoft Store app is up to date, Minecraft is up to date, Windows is up to date and that the Xbox app is up to date before continuing.

    Update the Microsoft Store app -Launch the Microsoft Store app > Select "Library" > Search for the Microsoft Store app and select "Update" if available.

    Update Minecraft - Launch the Microsoft Store app > Select "Library" > Search for Minecraft and select "Update" if available.

    Update the Xbox app - Launch the Microsoft Store app > Select "Library" > Search for the Xbox app and select "Update" if available.

    Update Windows - Start > Settings > Update Windows > Check for Updates

    We also recommend signing out of the Xbox app and signing back as there may be an issue with your account.

    Let us know if this helps,
