    Why can I not switch accounts on my Windows 11 Xbox PC App?


    I want to switch accounts from mine to my cousin's. Whenever I go into the app and sign out, it does sign out. All good so far. But when I choose to try to sign in, it just auto-logs me back into my own account, without giving me a chance to switch accounts. Someone please help!

    :)

    good evening

    Go to Windows Settings.

    Click on Accounts.

    Select Email & accounts.

    Click on the Microsoft account associated with the Xbox app.

    Click on Manage.

    Click on Remove.

    Re-add the Microsoft account you want to use.

    Launch the Xbox app and sign in with the new account.

    If the above steps don't work, you can also try clearing the Xbox app's cache by following these steps:

    Close the Xbox app.

    Go to Windows Settings.

    Click on Apps.

    Find the Xbox app and click on it.

    How to share Xbox Game Pass Ultimate with Family Members

    Thanks for your speedy response! I am trying to share my Game Pass account on my home PC. So I have XBOX app on my Windows 11 PC. I would like my son to login to the app with his XBOX account.

    So this means that I can share the games on the console with him but I can't share them on the PC with him?
