Minecraft Launcher sending me to Gaming Services

Hi, Ruben. I hope you're doing well and safe out there. I'm an Independent Advisor and I’m happy to help you today.

Sorry about that. We can try some steps that might help. Kindly first make sure all the required services are running to solve Xbox app sync issues on Windows.

Open the Start menu, search Services then open Services. Scroll down the list and find all of the Xbox entries (they are near the bottom).

Gaming Services (There are 2 of them)

Xbox Accessory Management Service

Xbox Live Auth Manager

Xbox Live Game Save

Xbox Live Networking Service

When you find them right-click on them and select Start. If you can see that they are already running you can skip them then try installing the gaming services here: https://apps.microsoft.com/store/detail/gaming-....

Hi and thanks for reaching Microsoft Xbox gamer's community. My name is Josef.

Hope you're doing great today Brendon

Could you try this to see if you're able to fix the issue:

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

Click Check for Updates;

Click the Download and Install Now option, if available;

Also, check the Microsoft Store for any updates on the Xbox apps and its services.

If everything's up to date now, do 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

Then do the same for the Xbox app and Minecraft launcher:

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

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

Let me know how it goes

It still tells me "Download gaming services app" when I click install on the minecraft launcher

if you have minecraft launcher you can open the game file from any version you have (also send me a screenshot)

I hit buy now and it is making me buy the game. It also says in the bottom left that it cannot connect to minecraft services on the launcher.
