Recently updated xbox app on pc now constantly freezes

Flashthesnowman · Jul 25, 2021

Subject says it all, the recent update on windows has made the xbox app impossible to use, it continues to freeze as soon as it launches (yet i can still play games via start bar searching) so far I've reinstalled the app, I've "Repaired" the app, I've signed my profile out and back in, I've even uninstalled some games to see if they were a problem, nothing has worked, i went from a perfectly working app that had no issues to be updated to a broken version of the app

Hi! My name is Pam. I'm an Independent Advisor and I'll be glad to help you today.

Open Powershell in admin mode and paste the following,

Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers| Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register “$($_.InstallLocation)\AppXManifest.xml”}

Then restart your PC to apply changes.

Xbox updated their PC apps recently with the introduction of the PC Game Pass. They changed the name of the Xbox app to the Xbox Console Companion and there is another app for PC Game Pass now. I'm not sure if they changed anything in the console app other
than that.

Just to clarify, are you entering the console IP address and not you computer's IP address?
