Searchbar Text Filter in xBox PC games pass is intensly sensored.

WesleySuperman · Jun 6, 2025 at 1:13 AM

I have xBox PC game pass ultimate and downloaded Ark Acended.
the text or search box to look for items to either learn ingrams or search to craft is so insalenly sensored that there are less than 3 items out of the 100s that I can actually search for show. Its ridiculous!

Smithy? no
Coocking Pot? no
metal ?? DEFNITELY NO.
what?? is that just incase im dyslexic and can't insult my inventory?
It's single player why is there sensorship in the first place? to protect me form myself?
This makes the game nearly intolerable to play.

Hi, my name is Tadeu, I'm an independent consultant and a Microsoft Xbox user just like you.

I'm here to help.

I hope everything is going well and thank you for reaching out.

This support is intended to answer questions about the use and configuration of devices.

I'm sorry you're having this issue.

Please try these steps.

In the Services app, in the results list, right-click and run it as administrator

Scroll all the way down and find the following services:

IP Helper

Xbox Live Auth Manager

Xbox Live Game Save

Xbox Live Networking Service

Gaming Services

And do this for each of the services listed above:

Right-click on the service and select Properties.

Find the Startup type section and make sure it's set to Automatic (if not, change it to Automatic).

If the service isn't started, click Start to start the services

Restart your PC and try again.

If the above doesn't work, let's try something different:

Create a new local user on your PC and try opening the game using that user:

If you log into your account on the microsoft store on a PC and then type the desired game into the searchbar, the default filter will be PC, so if the game appears, it’s compatible, but if it doesn’t, it is not.

Only select games are both Xbox and PC compatible, but some have a ‘Windows alternative’, for an additional price.

Written censoring would be alright alot of games with in game chat for pc have language text filtering with the option to turn on and off.

I think you have hit the nail on the head

The xbox chat needs a filter system to sensor out the bad langage and swaring in the messages
