    Hi SissyishPrism81,

    In order for your daughter to play, she would need her own Gamertag/Xbox Live account. The easiest way to do that would be to have your daughter sign onto the computer and then launch either the game (if it appears) or the Windows Store which will prompt
    her to set up her free account.

    In other words, the games use the sign in information for whoever is signed onto the computer. There is no way to switch to a different user from within the game.

    I hope this helps answer your question,

    GamePass and games sharing

    You can share Game Pass on their Xbox, but as far as I know, your account needs to be logged into it to see the Game Pass list. I have the same setup on mine and my daughters Xbox’s. Hers is home, mine has my account. To download Game Pass games onto hers
    I need to sign in and start the download, then sign out. Once it is downloaded she can see the game in her list.
