Unable to Sign In Xbox Game Pass on PC.

I cannot get the Xbox Console Companion to stay open because my Xbox One X is not working at present and is not plugged in or attached to my network.

As for Xbox App I spent over an hour with Xbox MS support and the agent tried all the fixes and methods that I had already tried from the posts and articles on how to fix the Xbox App Sign In problem. None of them worked for the support agent either. So the Xbox support person sent me over to the Windows support folks and there an agent tried several things (powershell, System config, Services etc.) and none worked for him either.

So the Windows support agent got into a Remote Quick Access session, tried several things as I watched and then ended up REINSTALLING Windows 11 for me. He (and I) thought that "should" fix the problem with a FRESH OS beyond just the update to Windows 11.

Well, this is one for the record books, the fresh Windows 11 install DID NOT FIX THE Xbox App problem. Same thing, not able to SIGN IN and therefore NOT ABLE to access Xbox Game Pass for PC at all.

I'm stumped and have now no idea what to do/try next.. It's pretty clear to me that the Xbox App has MAJOR problems and I'm wondering if any Windows 11 updates will fix it. BTW after the "fresh" OS install I did check for (and found) updates available and installed them all. Still no fix for the Xbox App....Stunned is a mild word for what I'm experiencing.

I'm fearful that the only solution is to reformat my C:\ drive and reinstall Windows 11 on a freshly cleaned drive. But I'm very reluctant to do that for Xbox App due to the obvious two to three weeks of reinstalling games and apps and stuff that is required after a clean start.

HELP...I need a Windows 11 "hail Mary"...

Miracles DO HAPPEN.....

I was setting up my sound devices in Win 11 and checking out how to switch from headphones to speakers etc. , and while I was doing that I was listening to some iTunes song. So "just for the heck of it" I clicked on XBox App and sure enough still not able to Sign In. So I closed it and then reopened it. While I was getting ready click on "Sign In" again and while I was just watching, LOW AND BEHOLD, My GamerTag avatar pops in and all of a sudden I'M SIGNED IN.....

Unbelievable.....I'm stunned again.

So, I'm going to install several of the Game Pass games I'm interested in and that way if the XBox App takes a dump again I'll be able to play them "offline" from my hard drive....

I Swear this XBox App Sign In thing is the strangest application problem/issue I've ever seen and I've been computing since before there were PCs.

Amazing but True...

Thanks again to the posts trying to help me...

I checked again and found that Xbox Console Companion WILL run/open. However, when I try to run Xbox App from inside XCC I get the same thing, no response. The Xbox App loads up, I can see my settings and the games catalogue but can not SIGN IN.

I just found out something interesting while trying to fix this, the Xbox App will NOT allow me to CREATE a new account. That button also results in no response.

Thanks for your reply.

Open the Xbox Companion app and try logging in with your account. Then open the Xbox app and see if your account is automatically logged in.

Yes, the most strange thing I've ever seen on a PC. I was playing a game in Xbox App and quit the game, closed the App and shut down my PC and went to lunch. When I got back I booted up, loaded Xbox App, intending to resume playing the same game as before, and "poof" the sign in was gone. Now it "poof" reappears right before my eyes....what the heck?

Anyway I just finished installing a half dozen games which will occupy me for at least 3 months or so. So if the Sign In disappears again I'll just play the game from my hard drive offline.

I do believe it's pretty clear that the Xbox App has some issues and hopefully they will fix it over the next couple of months.
