Playing a game on two computers but on the same account

Hello,

I'm not using Microsoft Store to play games, if I'm using something like Epic Games, would it still work if it's an online game?

Thanks

Hello, Nicholas S. I’m Arturo, and I’ll be glad to provide assistance with your inquiry today.

Depending on the game, doing that will represent issues with the saved data because some games upload the progress to the cloud.

So, your best option would be logged with your account on the Microsoft Store.
Then, on your friend’s PC enable offline permission via Microsoft Store settings and once your friend download the titles they want, he can change the account on the Xbox app (your account needs to be logged in the Microsoft Store).

Thanks for your attention,

Arturo.

Hi, Nicholas.
Probably that’s not going to work, even more if it’s an online game where you play against others, like Fortnite.

Additionally, I'm not aware if the Epic games' launcher supports a feature to share your library, I didn't find an official article from them.
So you can try contacting Epic support to further review this option in case it is suitable for your needs.

No, you will have to purchase two separate licenses to play on two computers at the same time.

Are you trying to run the game from two profiles on the same computer? Or are these two separate computers? If you are on the same computer, make sure the installation was set up to be used by any profile on the computer. Sometimes programs install on
a specific user profile, which would prevent other profiles from opening it directly while still showing it in the "Apps and features" section of Windows Settings. Also know that if you are trying to play with a separate Microsoft account that doesn't have
game pass, the game might not be accessible to you. Other than that you can try to reset the store using the "wsreset.exe" command by typing it in the search bar of Windows 10, then attempt a reinstall/relaunch of the games in question.
