  1. problems installing Xbox for windows


    I have tried installing xbox for windows to use game pass for pc

    the windows store refuses to download anything and just sits there at starting download with no progress.

    i have attempted the executable that you can directly download and have had no luck there it wont load anything and just says "making things awesome"

    looking at other form posts i can see other members of the community have had the same problems and i have seen they had been provided links to help them but when trying the solutions given to them i have still not made any progress what so ever.

    i have also attempted other methods given off site form other communities and those as well have not helped at all

    I would be very disappointed to see the gift of game pass i was given to go to waste so i am here asking for help.

    :)

    problems installing Xbox for windows

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

    My name is welcome to the community.

    Hello BurstLelemeGun, have you checked if you have the latest version of Windows installed, at 21H2, because recently came out the latest update to Windows 10.

    See which version of Windows 10 you have

    If you haven't updated yet, click the link below, update and then make all subsequent security updates.

    In addition Microsoft has released important updates for Win 10 and 11, they come as optional installations and must be installed, also make sure you have the Companion App installed on the PC, it works along with the Xbox App.

    Can the Windows Store verify an existing installation of game(s) downloaded previously or from files from another computer? Similar to Steam et al

    Hi there Nor,

    Thanks for the reply! Unfortunately, you will need to click the install to download any digital content for PC.

    If you have a Windows 10 device, you can now use the Xbox app to connect to the Xbox Live service.

    If you’re having problems installing the Games for Windows Live app, or connecting to the Xbox Live service, see

    Troubleshoot Games for Windows Live connection problems
    .

    For other gaming options, see:

    Hope this helps.

    Windows 8 for xbox one?

    The xbox one is basically a pc, and it will be running windows 8, but it's going to be very restricted. The 3 OS comment is likely referring to a hypervisor (1) controling the xbox one game OS (2) and a limited install of windows 8 (3). The windows 8 install
    will be a virtual machine with 3GB of RAM, some CPU core(s), and some GPU resources. If microsoft decides to upgrade xbox one to windows 9, that shouldn't be a problem. If the windows 8 install somehow gets compromised, also not really a problem though you
    would loose apps and data in the refresh.

    Thank you! This solved part of the problem. The other problem which was told to me by Windows was that I was installing it to my hard drive which does not have Windows installed. I had to put it on the drive where Windows was installed.
