    Using XBox Gamer Pass for PC with different users.


    I have a PC with the following information:

    Machine: DESKTOP

    User: OUTLOOK_USER (it just happens to be an email address with the outlook.com domain)

    I use OUTLOOK_USER as the windows user to log on to DESKTOP. I had installed XBox Gamer Pass for PC on this system and used the OUTLOOK_USER as the connection information. I had set up a PIN to more easily log on to DESKTOP. Everything works fine on this
    system.

    I recently got a new laptop and this is its information:

    Machine: LAPTOP

    User: GMAIL_USER (again, this just happens to be an email address with the gmail.com domain)

    I use GMAIL_USER as the windows user to log on to LAPTOP. I had installed XBox Gamer Pass for PC on this system. My idea was that I'd use OUTLOOK_USER to log on to XBox Games Pass for PC, while using GMAIL_USER to log on to Windows itself. However, when
    I do that, I put in OUTLOOK_USER's user and password, and then I am challenged with the Windows Hello PIN. I tried the PIN that I have set up to log on to windows on DESKTOP. Also I tried to use OUTLOOK_USER's password again. Neither of which worked.

    So, I set up OUTLOOK_USER on LAPTOP(and used the same PIN as I had on DESKTOP to log on to Windows). It synched and pulled down all of my desktop settings from DESKTOP. When I install XBox Gamer Pass for PC under the OUTLOOK_USER on LAPTOP, I can log right
    in.

    However, this seems clunky. So, my questions:

    1) Is there a way to use OUTLOOK_USER on LAPTOP as the XBox Gamer Pass for PC while logged in to Windows as GMAIL_USER?

    2) If #1 is yes, what PIN should I be using when challenged for the Windows Hello PIN?

    :)

    Modding with PC Xbox gamepass

    Hi and thanks for reaching Microsoft Xbox gamer's community. My name is Josef.
    I'm an Independent Advisor and a Microsoft Xbox user like you.

    Hope you're doing great today Jsr3dzzz

    Yes, right now most of the Game Pass PC Games doesn't support mods due to they used a different file format and works in a different way (if you check the folders inside XboxGames / WindowsApps you're not going to see the regular .exe).
    Sorry :c

    If you have further questions feel free to ask, greetings from another Microsoft user

    Are there any games available on xbox that are not available on PC on the xbox game pass ultimate.

    Just to confirm, in the subscriptions page says that you have Ultimate, right?
    https://account.microsoft.com/services

    I ask this because game pass ultimate it’s just a bundle. the subscription includes game pass for console, game pass for PC, EA play on both platforms and live gold on consoles.

    The games availability between PC game pass and console game pass are different. In console you can find other games
    You can check what games are included on PC here:

    Game from Game Pass launching Steam

    Hello dear Gamer, first it's a pleasure to be able to help you today.

    My name is Vinicius.

    I am a gamer and independent advisor on the XBOX community platform.

    Hey SaranshMehra, how are you today? Hope you're well.

    You see, Steam and Xbox Game Pass are two different platforms.

    Unfortunately, to play the game on Steam you would have to own it on Steam. :/

    Game Pass PC games, are only playable on Xbox app on PC. :/

    Why can't the Ultimate game pass be shared with family on PC?

    So your saying my family of 5 with 1 pc has to have 5 separate game pass subscriptions to use game pass on there pc accounts? I don't need to do this with the Xbox why is it different on the pc? I should be able to buy game pass for the pc and everyone that uses it has access
