    Unable to download a game


    My Microsoft account is a child’s account (I’m an adult never even knew about a child’s account) I have changed everything in the settings to make my “child’s account” to an adults account. I went to receive the free game “Dead Space 2” from Xbox Live Gold
    on my Xbox one. It tells me I cannot receive the game here and I have to go onto Xbox.com to receive the game. As told I did it and entered my information into Xbox.com, I went to get the game and everything was going well until I nearly had received the game.
    Then it tells my I had to make the transaction on Xbox one so I did as told went back onto Xbox and did it. But then it told me to go back onto Xbox.com!

    Does anyone know how to fix this nonsense

    :)

    Since you're on a child account, you will have to make the purchase on a 360 console.

    If the age of your account is 18 or over, you would want to look into promotion your account to an adult account. If it's under 18, you would still be considered to be a child account.

  5. Heya, unfortunately, if the account was created with the incorrect date of birth you will need to wait until the account has reached its 18th birthday based on the date entered when creating the account. There will be no way for you or us to adjust this
    date after the account has been created. Thanks for your understanding.

    Certain games are region locked while others aren't. You will always have trouble with region locked content if your info isn't correct.

    Does your account region match your actual physical location? Usually when a download has issues at 80% it is a sign of a region conflict. You need to have your account set to the same region as your physical location and your billing address.

    unable to download games

    Thank you, but it did not worked, I tried to delete the caché but it kept on the same, the problem was with my profile because after the download issue, everytime i tried to enter an app or a game it logged out automatically, so i deleted the profile and
    re-downloaded it and everything went normal again, even the download issue.

    Again, thank you for the info thee elf.
