    Windows 10 GFWL Marketplace Unable to retrieve purchase history


    hello Support,

    I recently started playing Fable 3 again with a friend of mine, but after hours and hours of reinstalling software and trouble shooting i have come to the conclusion something is wrong with my live account and this is most likely the reason that when i start
    GFWL Marketplace and i login i get an error: Unable to retrieve Purchase history. log-off and try again later.

    (for the record, marketplace start fine, it just can't download my purchases)

    - I can however check my Game purchases within the Xbox app on windows 10, but there are no DLC's to be found anywhere within that app.

    - In-game (fable 3) i am able to sign in with GFWL (home button) and my profile loads up. it even shows the DLC's check-marked i am even able to click download again. a download session start but fails within seconds ''can not download'' error shows up.

    Im pretty sure its account related since i used my friends account to login on my pc, and i was able to retrieve HIS purchase history and also download his DLC's for Fable 3 (we have the same dlc's).

    This proofs, in my opinion that the problem is not on my pc but within my live account!

    I have bought all the DLC's in the past and i really would like to download them within the marketplace, so im able to use them in-game again since this would just be fair.

    Please provide support regarding this issue, and check my account!

    Thanks,



    :)

    GFWL Marketplace - An unknown error has occurred when retrieving keys

    I'm having an issue with the GFWL Marketplace client. My purchase history updates fine and I can view all of my purchased content, but when I try to retrieve the keys for my content, I receive an error. The error states "An unknown error has occurred"

    Here is an image of what the error looks like: http://i.imgur.com/CJ8frg2.png

    I have installed the GFWL Marketplace client on my brand new laptop with a fresh install of Windows 10 and the error still occurs.

    Unable to retrieve purchase history from GFWL client

    CAN ANYONE FIX THIS PLS? PEOPLE PAID FOR THEIR GAMES AND ON THE XBOX PAGE YOU STATE:

    "Although you will not be able to purchase new games, you can continue to enjoy previously purchased content by downloading them through the Games for Windows LIVE client software as usual."

    I'M GOING TO RAISE THIS WITH WATCHDOG UK AND TRADING STANDARDS.

    You are going to be nominated the rogue trader of the year (and the IT idiot who switched this off is going to have his picture on the board).

    Start fixing it now!

    Thx

    Windows 10 GFWL Marketplace Unable to retrieve purchase history

    Hi,

    I'm That friend! with me DLC/Addons just install fine via GFWL Marketplace.

    we really really want to start playing together WITH the dlc (since we paid for it).

    Also in the past (2013) we didn't experience any issues.

    please MS, don't punish people for loving older games Windows 10 GFWL Marketplace  Unable to retrieve purchase history :(

    we're already hurt by the fact that you guys closed the best game dev studio in history (lionhead).

    Thanks in advance,

    GFWL Marketplace could not retrieve purchase history

    Maybe you can contact
    Xbox Support
    and get some assistance with your purchase history.

    Unable to retrieve purchase history for Age of Empires 3 on GFWL client

    "There was an error retrieving your purchase history. Please sign out and try again later"

    All I want is my Fable 3 DLC, Sooo glad I didn't buy much on gfwl. If they do the right thing and fix this cool, but my trust in the platform is not so easily restored. Windows 10 marketplace.... at this rate no thank-you :(

    edit: odd thing I notice is my glitched gfwl client shows an outdated gamerscore for my card, so not only can it not fetch my game purchases but it isn't an up to date profile score... if it can't do anything properly why can I even sign into it :/
