    when you reinstall windows it breaks the folder encryption used by xbox app, you have to reinstall all the games, no way around it, hopefully they will sort file discovery like all the other platforms sometime this century.

    I can't install any applications or games from Microsoft Store that specifically state they need administrator approval for installation.

    Currently Unable to Run Xbox Game App as an Admin

    So after a new Windows installation you still can't play the game, have you tried launching the game from the main menu and not from the Xbox app?

    Xbox app can't install paid games on ARM devices

    You can't install games on Windows currently without using the Xbox app

    Error

    I'm assuming you mean the Xbox beta App, so you can play games on Xbox game pass for PC or Ultimate. You need the latest Windows 10 version to be able to install the app, there is no other way. Also that app is only so you can find and install the games
    from game pass easier. You can still find and download the games from the Microsoft store app, but they may not work without the latest version of Windows installed.
