    When I open game, Microsoft decides to open gaming services


    When I open the game Dead by Daylight, and by other reviews on gaming services it seems any game on windows store, the game does not open. Instead, the product "gaming services" opens on the Microsoft store. There is no indication as to why it opens up, there is no update button for gaming services, and there is no uninstall or reinstall.

    :)

    When I open game, Microsoft decides to open gaming services

    Hello, My name is Jesse. I'm an Independent Advisor and a member of the Microsoft community and I'd love to assist you today.

    Try these methods to fix the Store one by one to see if one of them will solve the problem.

    Clear the Microsoft Store cache

    1. Press the 'Windows + r' keys and type 'wsreset.exe' (without the quotes)

    2. An command prompt window opens and then closes after approximately 10 seconds.

    3. The Microsoft Store then opens automatically. Check if it works properly again.

    To reset it:

    1. Open the settings by pressing the Windows + i keys

    2. Go to Apps> Applications and features.

    3. Select the Microsoft Store application and then click Advanced Options.

    4. Click the Reset button.

    5. Confirm the reset by clicking on Reset again.

    6. Go back to the Microsoft Store and check if it works properly again.

    Run troubleshooter

    1. Open Settings again (Windows + i)

    2. Go to Update & Security> Troubleshooting.

    3. Select Windows Store Applications and then click the Run Troubleshooter button.

    4. The utility will launch and check for problems that are preventing the Microsoft Store from functioning properly. If it detects anomalies, follow its recommendations.

    5. When the problems are resolved, close the utility.

    6. Go back to the Microsoft Store and check if it works properly again.

    Reinstall Microsoft Store

    1.Open Windows PowerShell as administrator. To do this, right click on the start button and click on 'Windows Shell (admin)'

    2. To reinstall the Microsoft Store app, enter the following command (you can copy and paste:

    Get-AppxPackage -allusers Microsoft.WindowsStore | Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register '$ ($ _. InstallLocation) \\ AppXManifest.xml'}

    3. Go back to the Microsoft Store and check if it works properly again.
