Parallels Desktop install error

Hello, first it's a pleasure to be able to help you today.

My name is welcome to the community.

Hello Homen, ususally the code error code can 0xc0000001 be caused for various reasons, such as corrupted system file, damaged SAM, damaged RAM, etc.

However, as it comes to Windows 11 the system can be very recent and not be fully adapted to the Windows system, the ideal would be to take a look at the fixes and compatibilities released and if possible test with Win 10.

"If you’re running windows under parallels we don't have the tools or information to help you"

This is CLASSIC pass-the-buck nonsense. Parallels is going to look at you like you are crazy and tell you to go to MICROSOFT for MICROSOFT apps that don't work.

For anyone on Google who wants the real answer, here is how to actually get this working:

-Clean install Windows on Parallels

-Do NOT sign in to your Microsoft account, on any prompt.

-Skip every setup question, get to the desktop as soon as possible, sign in to nothing.

-Make sure your user account in settings says "local account"

-DO NOT USE THE XBOX APP IN THE MICROSOFT STORE.

-DO NOT OPEN THE MICROSOFT STORE.

-Go directly to this page and download the Xbox for PC App: Xbox App for Windows PC | Xbox

-Run it, allow changes.

-NOW you sign in, allow it to "sign in everywhere on your device".

Here's why this works, and why this is NOT a Parallels issue: simply put the version of the Xbox app in the store is different than the standalone installer. It doesn't work, the installer does, as it installs the THREE "apps" needed for this to run: the Xbox app itself, Gaming Services, and most importantly the Xbox Identity Provider app. Installing the Xbox app from the store will not install the other two services required for this experience to work.

Anyone who has spent any time with Windows should understand that desktop apps and store apps are very different (EG OneNote). There's your tools and information boys, enjoy.

Replying this to confirm that this method works! You are a God-send thank You sir! If you installed the the Xbox app form the store you must uninstall it first then re-install using the link in the above comment.

Thank you Jerry. That sounds great.

Thanks for describing the steps needed after the firmware upgrade to make it work.

Now I need to get a windows device or ask someone with a windows computer to help me out. I have only have Apple devices at hand. Mac, iPad.

In case someone knows a workaround (not as big as installing Parallels Desktop) that would be great.

[quote user="NanoTechSoldier"]But, I will say, that the multi-processor Universal MacPros, CAN be modified to run two operating systems simultaneously on two different CPU's etc..[/quote]There's no modification required. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R5XZ63mRppc on any Mac that meets
Parallels's installation requirements and has two physical monitors.
