My Home Xbox Attempts

CaineGunho Guns · Feb 6, 2019

I only game share my games within the one household yet I've run out of attempts to share my games with my brother because the information on how to game share is so vague and hidden I failed my first three attempts on my first try.

Now apparently I have to wait a full year to share games with my brother who has none, rendering his xbox useless.

I tried to contact support but apparently only recently they no longer have the power to give you an extra attempt.

Why can't I share games a different way instead of these dumb attempts why doesn't it share games through the same I.P that way you wouldn't have people somehow abusing the system.

Then you will sadly have to wait another year

Hello Guns,

Sorry for the issue with home console changes. AS the support agent explained they no longer reset the limits. They used to be able to reset the limit one time. However there is a way to try and get ONE extra change. When you go to change and tells you,
you have reached the limit. Select help it will then give you a quest to fill out to get an extra switch. Then you will have to wait until the date posted for any more.

Thanks,

Brad

Hi there,

Then the only options you have are:

Wait the year out till you can set a new console as your account's home console.
Have your brother play on your home console while you play on his console.

If you have feedback/suggestions on how the process can be improved, it's best to post them at https://xboxideas.uservoice.com/.

Hi Raymond,

Here is a support link in regards to setting your home console. As well as I pasted for you about situations like yours.

https://support.xbox.com/help/hardware-network/console/my-home-xbox

Customer support can’t offer additional switches. If you’ve made five home Xbox switches for the year and you need assistance, select Help when
you see the message Can’t make this your home Xbox. You may be eligible to receive an exception.

Good luck and I hope they are able to get it sorted for you.
