playing games on PC

over the last few months i have been unable at times to login and play some microsoft games on my PC.

games played are solitaire, minesweeper, soduko and jigsaw. the login does work for perhaps 1 in 4 of the games at nay one time the others get a message saying "do you want to install this item?" "Price free" "description activate your game"; i press the
install button and then get "your purchase couldn't be completed" "try again later"; i press the close button and then get a message install the free games then fails with a cant install message. I then get a "to use the app you need to sign in message...."

today i used solitaire but the fail message is coming up for the other 3 games at same time as being logged in.

i tried to go to the xbox login but error 0xc00d11cd (oxc101000c).

if i reboot my pc it tends to work on the day.

Is there a general problem with logging in as its getting annoying and spoiling my enjoyment.

Playing xbox one games on win10 pc

I am a longtime pc game player.. think DOS 3.21 era..

Anyway, I am excited about the possibility of playing xbox games on PC.

However, I have a few questions..

I know I need to buy an xb1.

I am particularly interested in HALO 3+.

So here are my questions.

Once game streaming is setup is it possible to use the keyboard/mouse as my controller? I never did get a handle on the console controllers.

And can I play the entire game on PC?

Is Microsoft building in mappings for keyboards and mice?

Thanks..

Well, after reading further through the forum, I think my question was answered.

It seems you cannot use a keyboard/mouse to play xBox One games on the PC.

This would really be a nice feature for MS to add. You would suddenly see lots of Xbox one purchases as us hardcore pc gamers, could access the newer games.

How about it?

Has anyone found a way to do this?

 

Hi there!

Are you playing on the same account that is signed into the computer as the main account?

Let's see if we can reset all of the apps involved with the following steps:

1. Open the settings app.
   
2. Navigate to System/apps.
   
3. In the system sub-menu, navigate to Apps and Features
   
4. Search for the app in question.
   
5. After selecting the app, select advanced options.
   
6. Tap reset.
7. You may now re-open the app once more
   

Post back and let us know how that goes!

 

using windows 8.x, so not sure if that makes a difference.

when i go to control panel the items for minesweeper, etc do not show in the list neither does xbox.

when i search the app such as minesweeper then look at properties there is no reset option under any advanced button shown.
