    Xbox App stops downloads when focus is on another window


    Hello!

    Recently I changed motherboard and CPU and shortly after renewed my subscription to the XBOX Game Pass. When downloading Sea of Thieves again i noticed that my download constantly interrupted with the error message 0x8024001e. I googled it, tried many fixes,
    to no avail, but then started noticing that the error only occurred when I gave focus to another window. I.e. playing another game in fullscreen while the app was open in the background. I've tried other games, on different hard drives, and always the same.
    I've updated windows and the app, but the problem persists. It's not anything that makes the service completely unusable, but it is pretty annoying as I can't do any background downloads.

    Thanks in advance!

    :)

    xbox 720 mistakes

    If MS want to focus on Apps/Entertainment then nothing is going to stop them, as long as the New Xbox is launched first and foremost as a games console. When E3 comes around this June, they can spend 10mins talking about Apps etc, but the main focus of
    E3 should be games.

    When they try to it might not be possible to stop it.

    .

    Avatars, cool.

    New dashboard, cool.

    App focus, cool...

    Next thing you know the next Xbox doesn't actually play games.

    Can't Download/Install any games

    I can install games that dont open the xbox app like candy crush, but some links refer me to the xbox app and even starting downloads from there fails. When it starts preparing/downloading from xbox app, the windows store continues saying "install from xbox app" and doesnt give the stop square button like other apps.

    Xbox controller not 'usable' on my PC.

    Usually this is the result of another window stealing focus, try all tapping to another window, and going back
