    Xbox App for PC not recognising subscription and purchased games


    I recently purchased Xbox Gamepass Ultimate.

    The Xbox App on my PC and my laptop does not recognise this subscription. When I try to download a game it prompts to join Gamepass, when I try to 'join' it gives an error saying "Give it another try. Something went wrong."

    Additionally, when I go to "Games I own" it shows the message "looks like you're stranded... There might be a problem with the app. Try it again in a while."

    My Xbox recognises the subscription. I can download and play gamepass games on my Xbox.

    The gamepass mobile app recognises the subscription. I can remotely install gamepass games to Xbox and my PC.

    The Microsoft store recognises the subscription. I can download and play gamepass games on my PC.

    When I view my subscriptions on my Xbox, on the Microsoft store, or when I log into my Microsoft account through a web browser, my current subscription is viewable. If I choose to "view my Xbox profile" from my Microsoft account, it correctly shows my Xbox
    profile (so there is no issue with not having the correct MS account linked to the correct Xbox profile).

    If I use the mobile app or the MS store to install a gamepass game, the Xbox app recognises that the games are installed, but when I try to launch from the Xbox App, the launch button is not there, instead it says "Play with Gamepass".

    When I go to "settings->account" in the Xbox App on PC/laptop, it says "We encountered an error and your subscriptions failed to load." Additionally, In the "settings->general" of the Xbox App, it says "Come back later. We can't confirm offline permissions
    at the moment."

    I have tried deleting and reinstalling the app, clearing cache, both the repair and reset options.

    How can I resolve this?

    :)

    Help please is about Game pass ultimate

    Hi!

    The Game Pass Ultimate itself isn't in beta, but the PC Game Pass component is. If you're using it on your console, nothing should have changed as it has basically combined Game Pass and Live into one subscription but with the added bonus of PC Game Pass.

    Have you tried rebooting your console? If your subscription is active it should recognise this. Also make sure you're signed into the account that purchased the subscription and games.

    Flight Sim install

    There are two apps on your PC that you could, technically download games and app.

    There's the Microsoft Store app, there, you could download apps and some games, and the Xbox app, that you use for the Game Pass subscription games, or even those you purchased.

    Xbox App Wont Recognise Gamepass PC Subscription

    Hello !

    Before everything, check through the Microsoft Store if a new update is available for the Xbox app for PC. Be sure to click on "Get Updates" if nothing happens.

    You can also check for a new Windows 10 update.

    Sometimes, such problems with your account recognition can be related with the Xbox Identity Provider. Check that it is properly installed on your computer, if not, you can get it via the Microsoft Store.

    Hope it can help !

    xbox game pass question

    Hi, Gibby here!

    Sadly, you can only purchase subscriptions like Xbox Live Gold through the Xbox 360. However, on PC, you can get the Xbox app, allowing you to purchase many subscriptions that are on Xbox like EA Access, Game Pass, etc.
