    Why is my Xbox Series X not letting me play a lot of my games i purchase from Microsoft on...


    I have a Xbox Series X and when i purchase a game to download to the console from Microsoft Store it will download just fine and when i go to play the new game i just downloaded i get stopped or the console freezes and will automatically take me back to the Xbox Home Screen and i can not play the games i purchased. This happens to more than a couple of my games i purchase and also to some Cloud games i try to play. It does not happen to the games on my PC. I have trouble shot til i just don’t know what to do next except send it to Microsoft and the warranty has expired. So what do you think i should do next?

    :)

    Why is my Xbox Series X not letting me play a lot of my games i purchase from Microsoft on my Xbox series X?

    Hi, I hope you're doing great out there. I am an Independent advisor and I am here to help you in regard to your concern.

    To fix this, please perform a power cycle on your console by following the steps below:

    POWERCYCLE CONSOLE​​​

    ​​​

    1. Turn off your console by holding the Xbox button on the front of the console for approximately 10 seconds. The console will turn off. ​​​

    2. Turn your console back on by pressing the Xbox button on the console or the Xbox button on your controller. ​​​

    If that didn't work resetting the console keeping games and apps will be the next option. Don't worry because as long as you're connected to Xbox Live your saved progress, games, will not be deleted. It will remove all of your accounts but you can add all of them later on.

    Press the Xbox button to open the guide.

    Select Profile & system > Settings > System > Console info.

    Select Reset console.

    Reset and keep my games & apps.

    I own the game on the Xbox series x but it won't allow me to connect the game to my profile which is on the Xbox series x and so it does not let me play online, If that makes sense.

    Multiple Family Settings Issues

    Thank you for the response!

    I have some clarifying questions. First, let me make certain that we have had the X-Box One S for quite some time and only recently purchased the Series S. Therefore, my account and the gamepass sub are tied to the One S.

    1. If I make the Series S my new main X-Box, will my children not be able to benefit from Gamepass on the One S?

    2. Is Minecraft multiplayer restricted to Gold sub members? And that is why my wife cannot play on the realm?

    3. Is there a simple solution that allows my whole family to benefit from Gamepass with multiple XBox consoles within one home? We will likely be adding another Series S or Series X at some point, is each console supposed to have its own subscription?

    Joseph, can you help me? I purchased PGA Tour 2K23 for XBOX One.
