Windows Store : only 17 games on Game Pass "will work" on my PC

NikolasBellamy · Apr 25, 2019

I'm about to throw my computer OUT of my windows if this stupid garbage continues. You people don't know how to run a company to save your lives. Worst user experience ever. My specs are:

X5675 @ 4.5ghz

20gb RAM

RX 570 8GB @1400coreclk/2160memclk

Windows 10 64 bit Ultimate

Yet I'm not even ALLOWED to TRY and install and play these games WHICH I HAVE PAID FOR because YOU DECIDE SO.

What the fk is this bs? Why is this STILL an issue after YEARS

I'm not reinstalling windows and all my games and programs and all that bs just because you idiots decided for no apparent reason that my PC isn't good enough for YOU.

I play Fallout 4 at 140fps @1080p, yet I can't even TRY TO INSTALL IT. I don't understand how it's legal to sell someone something under the pretense that they will then be able to use said product and then just deny them the right. It's criminal.

So how am I supposed to fix this?

It's pretty obvious that I'm talking about the company and not the users. But since you're not an idiot, I guess you already knew that?

This is a forum of users not Microsoft so do not call all the users idiots.

Hi,

Not only does Win 10 LTSC not get updates very often, it' is also missing the Windows Store.

Game Pass on PC uses the Windows 10 Store to download the games, they don't download and install via the app. No Windows Store, no PC Game Pass compatabilty.

LTSC was designed for mission critical work tasks, not gaming.

You'll need one of the consumer versions of Windows 10 to use Game Pass.

Hi,

Unfortunately the Windows Store game downloads (both Game Pass and purchases) work differently to other PC download services. The games are encrypted and will only work on one PC. Reinstalling Windows from scratch will invalidate the encryption key, even
if the PC it was originally installed remains technically the same.

I'm afraid re-downloading the game again is the only option you have. No other way around it.

PC game pass, it will be on the Windows Store, Steam, and probably other PC stores now and in the future.
