Xbox app opens for a few seconds then crashes. How to fix???

Dylan's Brain · Jan 27, 2023

I have been having some issues with the Xbox app on windows 10. When i first downloaded it after buying the Xbox ultimate game pass it ran fine. Well, ran fine for the first day after i closed it out and came back to it the next day it wouldn't open. It would open for about 2 seconds so that you could see the Xbox symbol in the middle move then close itself out. I tried it Mutiple times, and it wouldn't open, so i restarted my computer which did nothing, attempted to repair which did nothing, then as a last resort uninstalled and reinstalled it which also did nothing. It still just opens for a few seconds tops then closes out. No error message or nothing like that i have a decent computer and like I said it ran pretty well the first day so i doubt it's my PCs specs. Appreciate any help.

Hi, and thanks for reaching out. My name is Miguel O., Sorry to hear you're experiencing this issue!

First please make sure your PC has de lastest updates.

Then please Reinstall the Gaming Services app on your Windows 10/11 device:

1. Select the Search icon on the taskbar, type powershell, right-click on Windows PowerShell, and then select Run as administrator.

2.In Windows PowerShell, type the following command and press Enter:

get-appxpackage Microsoft.GamingServices | remove-AppxPackage -allusers

3. In the same window, type the following command and press Enter:

start ms-windows-store://pdp/?productid=9MWPM2CQNLHN

4.Install the app on that page and select Yes when you receive the User Account Control (UAC) prompt.

5. Restart your device

I want to point out that I have just tried to use the troubleshooter for the microsoft-store. The troubleshooter found out that my UAC is turned off and asked me to turn it on, which I did. I tried opening the Xbox app once again but not is has started to crash a few seconds after I try to open the app.

Hello there, having the same exact problem ? How did you manage to do that (turn off automatic updates) when the app keeps crashing ? I couldnt get it to stay open for 1 second.
