    Everytime i try to launch a game from xbox i get sent to the windows store page for game services, except there is no option to install or update it.

    Ive tried restarting my computer, using windows powershell to uninstall and reinstall game services, but nothing seems to work.

    Weird! I suggest you try these basic troubleshooting steps!

    Open Settings, click Update and Security and then Windows Update;

    Click Check for Updates;

    Click the Download and Install Now option, if available;

    Also, check the Microsoft Store for any updates on the Xbox apps and its services.

    Then try this:

    Go to windows settings > apps > search for gaming services app > click on it and select advanced options.

    After that, click repair and then restore, open the app and try again.

    Then do the same for the Xbox app:

    Go to windows settings > apps > search for Xbox app > click on it and select advanced options.

    After that, click repair and then restore, open the app and try again.

    If it still doesn't work you're going to uninstall the games services using a powershell command, then you're going to open the gamepass app, it will ask you to download and install the game services again :

    In the windows search bar type Powershell > Right click and select open as administrator > Type the command: "get-appxpackage Microsoft.GamingServices | remove-Appxpackage –allusers" > Wait for the process to finish and then restart the PC, then open your Xbox gamepass app, it will ask you to install the gaming services again, install it and try again.

    I went through all of these steps but I'm still facing the same issue. When normally i would be promoted to reinstall the gaming services i would just be faced with the same store screen for the gaming services but with no option to install or update, or to do anything else really.

    I tried this and unchecked "Use my sign-in info to automatically finish setting up my device and reopen my apps after an update and restart." however I noticed no difference on the boot once i had restarted. Still encountered the same issue.

    Hi there andreasanfindsen welcome to the community forum! Christopher here, an Xbox fan just like you and has been on Xbox for years already. I would really love to make your day by helping you out. Well, I suggest you try this:

    Open the Settings app it is the gear in the start menu.

    Open Accounts

    Click Sign-in Options

    Scroll down to Privacy

    Uncheck "Use my sign-in info to automatically finish setting up my device and reopen my apps after an update and restart."

    Restart your PC!

    "Gears Tactics" does not install

    I'm Samy an independent advisor and I'll be helping you :D

    Follow these steps, if one doesn't work, move on to the other.

    First Windows key + R and type ''ms-windows-store:purgeCaches'' the Microsoft Store will open, try downloading the game again.

    .Open Windows Update and look for updates, update everything, including optional updates. Restart to apply updates and try again.

    Press Windows Key + i and go to apps, search for ''gaming services'' click ''advanced options'' and then ''terminate, repair and reset. Try installing the game again.

    Launch PowerShell as an administrator and enter

    “get-appxpackage Microsoft.GamingServices | remove-AppxPackage -allusers”

    Restart your PC, open PowerShell as admin again, and enter

    “start ms-windows-store://pdp/?productid=9MWPM2CQNLHN”

    The Microsoft Store will open and ask to install Gaming Services, install. Then try installing any game again.
