    Minecraft for Windows 10

    Hello Buszi,

    Thanks for keeping us updated. We recommend manually logging off of both the Xbox companion app and windows. Afterwards, power cycle your PC and then re-sign into windows and then the xbox app. Launch Minecraft and then let us know the results.

    If this doesn't help, have you already tried uninstalling/re-installing the game : How to uninstall and reinstall a game on Windows

    Xbox asks me to "Change your install options in Profile" even though I have a lot of space

    The above issue occurred on a fresh install of Windows 11 Pro.

    I was able to "fix" the issue by unenrolling from Xbox Insider Hub's Windows Gaming. I then uninstalled the Xbox app. I restarted my machine. I then re-enrolled back in the Windows Gaming Preview. I reinstalled the Xbox App. I still had the same error, so I unchecked the option to "Ask me for install options on every install." Game Pass Games now install as normal rather than the advanced options under C:\Xbox Games.

    Identifying the issue was seeing the option "This game supports advanced management features." on the 7 games that were already installed.

    Advanced Installation and Management Features available for Insiders through the Xbox App for Windows - Xbox Wire

    In conclusion,

    I believe this is some sort of Xbox Insider Hub Preview issue with the Xbox App because the 7 games were installed without the option of C:\Xbox Games that I had prior to reloading Windows 11.

    Xbox app won't load whenever I restart the PC and games give me an error [GameName] can’t open because it is offline. The storage device might be missing or disconnected.

    I'm using Windows 11. I tried uninstalling Naraka and restart my PC, but I still have the same problem with the Xbox app. All of my games are installed on D.

    XBOX GAMES FOR PC LOST AFTER DOWNLOADING MICROSOFT 11

    Lois, let me see if I understand. You're subscribed to Gamepass, right?

    When you open the Xbox app on your PC, no games are showed there? What exactly the app showed you when you open it?

    Also, you said you installed, 11 of them, you cannot see them installed on your PC?
    They installed Windows 11, not "installed 11" games.

    i can only play minecraft windows 7 with windows 10???

    Yeah, Minecraft launcher for Windows 10/11 requires Xbox identity app due to that app was created on windows 10 launch

    There is no way to install Xbox identity provider app on windows 8 and older systems (these apps uses a different file type from the regular .exe)

    Try installing instead windows 7 64 bits and let me know how it goes
