will the xbox pc app ever work?

hasnt worked in a month for me, not that it never worked well. just tried to update 'Gaming Services' not only did it get stuck updating, magically, all my desktop icons are now IE. seriously, i dont know anything about programming or coding or whatever the people who make this app are too incompetent at to make it work, but i know this app network is the only thing ive ever encountered that is fundamentally tied into your computer and completely broken. look at the ratings for the gaming services app. its literally thousands of people saying "this doesnt work nothing works its broken"

thats my question, is there any intention to fix this garbage that has been broken for years now?

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 this: Go to Windows settings >> Apps >> Xbox >> Advanced >> Repair & Reset.

After doing that, Perform the same steps for Gaming Services and Microsoft Store as well.

If that doesn't help then, Try reinstalling the Gaming Services app on your Windows 10 device:

- Right-click the Start button in the lower-left corner of the main screen, and then select Windows PowerShell (Admin).

- In the Administrator: Windows PowerShell screen, type the following command and press Enter:

get-appxpackage Microsoft.GamingServices | remove-AppxPackage -allusers

- In the same window, type the following command and press Enter:

start ms-windows-store://pdp/?productid=9MWPM2CQNLHN

- Install the app on that page, and select Yes when you receive the User Account Control (UAC) prompt.

- Restart your device, and try to install the game again.

If that doesn't help, Go below in regedit and delete both keys and reboot.

Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\GamingServices

Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\GamingServicesNet

That's perfect then. Kindly reset and repair your Xbox by following the steps below:

Settings > Apps > Search for "Xbox" > Advanced Options > Repair and Reset > Restart PC.

If ever that didn't work please uninstall and reinstall the app.

yes, just sign her out of her xbox app on her pc, sign in with your account, download the game and once done sign out of the xbox app on her pc and sign in with her account, she can play that game with you. there is only one game i ever had issues with was sea of thieves with a licence conflict, apart from that it has worked for years now.
