Xbox app not updating the list of added games

gallobreno · Nov 15, 2021

I was waiting to play forza horizon 5 via the cloud gaming but the game didn't show up there, so I had to delete some games and download it to my computer, after that my friend showed me that in his app the game was avaiable in the cloud, so I had to uninstall and reinstall de Xbox app and it showed up as intended, but today I discovered that GTA San Andreas was suposed to be avaiable at the cloud gaming services too and wasn't showing up on the recent added nor when I searched for it, so I reinstalled the app again and it showed up. Is there a way to fix this or am I going to reinstall the xbox app weekly?

I'm Samy an independent advisor. Welcome to the Xbox community. How are you?

Could you tell me if the same happens if you play at xbox.com/play?

These steps can help you, give it a try.

Check for updates on Windows Update, update everything including optional/additional updates.

1. Logout from Xbox app and Microsoft Store app

2. Look for the Xbox app and Microsoft Store app in the Windows menu, right-click, click app settings and then click terminate, restore and reset.

3. Clear the store cache type ''wsreset'' in the Windows bar, run as admin, and wait for the screen to close and open the store automatically.

4. Open the Microsoft Store app, click on the 3 dots in the upper right corner>downloads updates>get updates and update everything.

5. Restart your PC, log in to both apps and see if that solves the problem.

Also, make sure your PC's region is set correctly for the country you live in. Sometimes you may have the PC in another region and this may be causing the problem.

I'm not sure about adding a section to the Microsoft Store app, but the Xbox app specifically lists Game Pass games.

Hello,

If the person has added the game in to the Xbox App on PC then it will display the name of the game.

It happened after an anti-virus update? Try re-adding the Xbox app to the exceptions list for the antivirus. That would be a good place to start. Let us know if it worked.
