    What's the path for the Xbox gamepass launcher app?


    I realise this is a super specific use case but I'm losing my mind here.

    I'm trying to set up a customised dock bar in rainmeter, and I'd very much like to include the xbox app (along with steam, battle.net, EA, epic launcher etc...) on this bar. for all my other programs this has been a super simple process of copying the path for the launcher program (eg. "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\Steam.exe"), setting an icon and BAM it all works fine.

    But then I get to my nemesis, the xbox app for PC, open up properties for the desktop shortcut I've been using and in target box it says "Microsoft GamingApp_8wekyb3d........" and this would all be fine, BUT I CAN'T COPY THIS as the box isn't selectable.

    I've tried to include a photo to show what I mean, incase my description isn't good enough, for some reason it won't upload here.

    You're a bloody legend mate, who would've thought to link a link. Love your work.

    only thing is it's .lnk (LNK) not .ink (INK). But I still wouldn't have thought of it.

    Hi Zarbaul. My name is Kyle and I'm an independent advisor.

    The Xbox app isn't a standard exe, one way around this is to create a Desktop shortcut of the app and then copy the path to the shortcut (.ink file) instead.

    I'd recommend checking out Rainmeter's documentation or website though, they may have more information for you.

    minecraft error installing

    Hi JacksonSO! My name is Ricardo an independent advisor ready to help you with this situation!

    Please, log with the account that owns the game on the Microsoft store app and the Xbox app, then on the Xbox app look for Minecraft for windows 10 (not Minecraft launcher) then select install and choose the same installation path as the launcher

    Do I have to download a game I already have?

    Hello!

    The gamepass app and steam are different launchers. Then you need to download the game again in the Microsoft Store and run it through the gamepass app.

    Minecraft bedrock won't install with launcher

    Hi IEnglish! My name is Ricardo an independent advisor ready to help you with this situation!

    You can try installing the game from the Xbox app or Microsoft store app directly by looking for Minecraft for windows instead of Minecraft launcher, you will need to install it on the same path than the launcher
