    Xbox App on Windows - This app needs a few things are are missing on this PC


    Hi Everyone,

    So I've already posted this on the Windows Feedback app, but it hasn't had any traction since posting it weeks ago now so attempting another way.

    Both PC's I use often have the 'Xbox' app installed - not the companion app. Recently, since an update to the app, I'm always told I need to install various dependencies in order for the app to function correctly. I've been through it's list and 'installed'
    any it asks for - but it still continues to say they're not installed. I can't sign into the app either.

    When I've searched on Twitter, there only seems to be one other user that's publicly mentioned this issue, so I'm unsure if it's widespread or only a handful of people.

    According to the app, I'm currently missing:

    • Gaming Services
    • Xbox Identity Provider
    • Microsoft Store (which I use daily)
    • Purchase App
    • Xbox Game Bar (which I use daily)
    • Feedback Hub (which I have used recently)

    Just a bit clueless. When I look through the categories it only lists the 'Xbox beta' app as an available search term. Is this still in beta? - I can see support sections for the now discontinued Console Companion app - what's going on here?

    :)

    Hello Rob! I'm Kris and I'd be happy to help you with your question.

    Sorry to hear you are having this issue. I have a couple of things you can check/try.

    1. Make sure that both Windows and the Xbox app don't have any updates pending, if they do, get them downloaded.
    2. Check the Windows Service called Storage Service is running. If its running, stop it, start it then load the app again.

    This app needs a few things that are missing on this PC (They are NOT missing)? What to do?

    Hi there, this appears to have worked. By shutting down "services" am I missing out on something that I should not be shutting down?

    Could you explain why this particular service is interfering with the xbox game app?

    Thank you so much for your speedy assistance!

    Regards
