Windows 10 XBox App DVR requieres Media Pack that is already installed

Hi,

I also had the same issue. I recently reinstalled Windows 10 on a new SSD, and afterwards the Xbox-app would crash randomly. When I saw your Windows version I remembered that I had forgotten to install something.

You see I also have Windows 10 Home N, which is a special version of Windows 10 that comes without certain features due to some EU court ruling or something like that. Anyways, it doesn't really matter, since you can get these features by installing the
Media Feature Pack. I had forgotten to install this pack, and installing it fixed the issue.

Here's how to install it:

The Media Feature Pack for N versions of Windows 10 is available for download as an Optional Feature. To install the Media Feature Pack, navigate to Settings > Apps
> Apps and Features > Optional Features > Add a Feature and find the Media Feature Pack in the list of available Optional Features. Note, you will not be prompted to restart your computer, but
you must restart in order to successfully complete installation of the Media Feature Pack.

Edit:

Figured I should link to the support page:

https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/4562569/media-feature-pack-for-windows-10-n-may-2020

I managed to find that the issue here was because i'm using Windows 10 N which doesn't have any of the Media Features installed and this was causing the application to crash as it requires these features for the Game Bar Application integration.

Once i installed the Media Feature Pack for Windows 10 1909 and restarted my computer i was able to use the Xbox app.

Hi, I have recently upgraded my OS from Windows 8.1 to Windows 10 Pro N.

I have installed Windows Media Feature Pack - still Xbox app is without streaming options.

I have also reinstalled Xbox App, with Powershell commands.

Still, no options to receive stream from Xbox One console to Windows 10

Hello,

I understand it can be frustrating when the application don’t work the way they are supposed to. The error code/ message, the issue might be due to missing Windows Media components and missing media .dll files to install Forza Horizon 4.
