    XBox App on Windows 10 Pro keeps closing when streaming


    I can open the app and start streaming but soon afterwards the app just closes and I have to re open it again. It won't stay open.

    What is going on with? Is a new version coming that will fix this issue?

    Thanks!

    :)

    Xbox App missing stream buttons

    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

    Streaming to Windows 10 PCs doesn't work at the last stage

    Hello,
    I've tried streaming to two windows 10 devices (a HP laptop and a Surface Pro 3) , I've tried hard rebooting the Xbox one twice, and rebooting the Windows 10 devices numerous times. Also tried the Windows 10 devices on wireless and wired. (The Xbox One
    is always wired)
    when I click to start streaming, it says it's connected to the Xbox One, the Xbox One reports a "username has started streaming" then the Xbox app just goes "blanked out" as if the stream should have popped over the app's window

    The "test streaming" feature always reports a success, however when streaming or trying the test, I never see much notable network activity in task manager of the Windows 10 machines.
    Kind regards.

    Hey MORP3X,

    Are you running the Xbox Application on Windows 10? Just want to confirm.

    If the Xbox app crashes when streaming, joining a party or uploading a video on your PC, you can try resetting the Xbox app to default. This will remove all of your settings and cache and hopefully, resolve the issue you're experiencing.

    1. Open the Setting app and go to the Apps section on your PC.

    2. Select Xbox from the list and click Advanced options.

    3. Scroll down to the Reset section and click Reset and again to confirm.

    After you do this, your Xbox app will be reset to default and the problem should be resolved. The app is great on Windows 10, but if it keeps closing on you after you give this a try.

    I'd also recommend before you take any action, check out this Xbox Support article on "How to use game streaming in the Xbox app on Windows
    10
    " and reviewing the troubleshooting section.

    Win10 Game Streaming - Not working

    All,

    Still looking for help on this. The "Stream" button on my Windows 10 Pro N desktop is not appearing. "Test Streaming" is the only option appearing. Xbox One app is on the latest. I have also uninstalled the app and reinstalled. The funny thing is, I am
    using a Laptop, running Windows 10 and i am able to stream to my laptop on the same network. Is there a firewall or an issue with the network? Devices all have Static IP.

    Bug: Microphone doesn't work after disconnecting Windows 10 streaming

    Thank you Bestlano!

    Another issue I'm running into with the headset adapter + windows 10 streaming:

    I docked my surface pro 2 into the docking station, which has a wired PC microphone plugged in. When I start playing (Rainbow Six Siege), the game audio is coming through my headset adapter (via the Xbos Stereo Headset), but the Windows 10 Xbox app is utilizing
    my wired PC microphone instead of the Stereo Headset/Headset Adapter. I can't figure out a way to force the streaming app to use the microphone plugged into my controller...

    (not sure if I should document this issue in another thread)

    It seems there may be some minor issues between the Windows 10 Xbox streaming application when used with the Xbox Headset Adapter.
