Uninstalled Xbox App because it wasn't working, now I can't reinstall it.

AdamStrover · Nov 22, 2022

For a few days the Xbox app would hang when I tried to access most games, and wouldn't restart unless I restarted my PC. So I tried uninstalling the app, and now I can't reinstall it.

I've tried downloading and running the XboxInstaller program from https://www.xbox.com/en-US/apps/xbox-app-for-pc, and it seems to be working for a little while but then just crashes with no explanation. If I look at Event Viewer, I see these errors:

and

If I try to install the Xbox App from the Microsoft Store app it just hangs, and I get this error in Event Viewer:

I've tried every solution listed at https://windowsreport.com/xbox-app-windows-10-wont-open/ and it still won't install.

Any help you can provide would be greatly appreciated.

I have the same problem. The game stopped working, so I uninstalled it and was planning on reinstalling it because that usually works but when I went to reinstall it, it wasn't in my games and apps or even in the store

I got YouTube app to uninstall / reinstall, but now it doesn't even open up to the red screen and then time out, like it was doing before. I select the app, hear the Xbox chime and then... nothing. Can't force close the app. No point in uninstalling again,
because that accomplishes nothing.

So frustrating. GET THIS FIXED!

Same... redeemed code, not showing up in game so thought maybe uninstall and reinstall but can't find it in order to reinstall... also deleted message because I wasn't expecting problem
