Thank you for replying! all of the Xbox apps are updated, and I am on windows 11 21H2, I tried after updating the Xbox app and my computer, but it still doesn't work.

Hi George,

I was using the latest version of Windows 11, the October update.

Anyways, after checking the disk, checking for Windows updates, defragmenting, and updating the Xbox app, it stopped crashing.

Thanks,

Check if there are any pending windows updates. Update it to the latest version. Check if there are any updates for the windows store and xbox app. Force quit the game and try updating and launch the game. After updates restart the PC
