My xbox app goes to open and then shuts down within seconds, this started when I went to...

I truly appreciate your wanting to help. Its just a software problem caused by MS not you, thank you for trying.

I have tried that option. Everytime i uninstall the service I can open the app, then I make sure all xbox programs are running and it updates fine. Then I get the preparing for game to load or download and its does not do anything. When I close the app it then goes back to not opening. The only thing I can see when I can open the app is an issue with location where the apps are and there is no option to look to where its located. I had in the past used my ext ssd to download games. Never an issue until they updated the services. Now I have just deleted everything xbox related apps and will contact MS when I can get a chance and will not be paying next month for services that I cannot use because it happened when they came out with the new updates. If its not broken then no need to mess with it as my father used to tell me. He just recently passed and I was unaware of this issue and didnt have the time to play on pc. Now that I have only a few moment to play, I cant. This is put my faith im MS products on my **** list. I plan on changing my OS system to run on anything not MS. Windows 10 was perfectly fine until they decided to make money of a product that was taped together and unnecessary just to say hey New program more Money.
