PC: Gears of War 5 will not launch.

OfficialQuake · Sep 9, 2019

I bought game pass ultimate yesterday and i'm trying to play gears 5 but it will not launch no matter what.

I've already uninstalled/re-installed the game, as well as uninstalling the Xbox app and reinstalling it.

I've gotten a File system error code:

(-2015295481)

yup, get em all, and do a restart after then check again til you get no possible updates,

Check for an update in Windows. if you run the check have it update anything it sees.

Check for updates in Windows, mine was doing the same thing and windows update grabbed a small file and it corrected the issue.
