xbox beta app creating system logs every 10 secs. Event ID 10016

To be more specific, it's an Event ID 10016 in the DistributedCOM Source type.

I updated to the latest beta version earlier (build 11.10.29014) and the issues persist with this version. If I leave the app running but unused for a few minutes, when I come back to it it's frozen and the 2 events mentioned in my previous post are logged
in event viewer. This is repeatable every time, so you should be able to replicate it easily enough.

I reported it through the app again.

Cheers guys.

Every now and then it shows the "creating account" for a solid 10-30 secs but then mind f**ks you right back.... So depressing

Hello MarkMan,

Thank you for posting on the Xbox forums. We understand that the Xbox (beta) App is not logging you in completely. We have
a forum thread that contains several different issues and solutions for the Xbox (beta) App. A great option is to make sure that

Windows 10 is up to date. We recommend trying out the solutions in this thread, and be sure to let us know the results

Umm, thanks for your reply... As you can see in the list of steps I tried, the 3rd step was actually what you're suggesting. You'll also note in footnote (*1) that it did let me SET the Xbox app to install to the F drive, however the install still fails instantly.

As I figured this problem was permissions related I delved into the Event Viewer and found I was also seeing the symptoms listed here;

I proceeded to track through that string of replies until I happened upon a user who nailed it down to being a permissions fault, which is exactly what I thought too. He found walkthrough information on this site;

https://appuals.com/how-to-fix-the-...mission-for-the-com-server-application-error/

Which allowed me to realize that the permissions were IN FACT screwed up somehow. I went through the event viewer and found the APPID and CLSID of the offending software, and which username (mine) was trying to use it. Went into the registry and tracked to the locations in HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT, which in my case was

CLSID {37399C92-DC3F-4B55-AE5B-811EE82398AD}

APPID {37399C92-DC3F-4B55-AE5B-811EE82398AD}

Found out the app was related to the "AppServiceContainerBroker" so I went into Component Services and looked at it's permissions. I tried adding my user account with full local launch and activation permissions but that didn't solve it. I tried adding "All Application Packages" with local launch and activation, and that solved the issue with the 10-second errors in event viewer. Sadly it didn't fix the installation problem though.

I still can't figure out why the games won't install to the F drive. There are no further event viewer entries occurring, even when trying to install. I'm not sure if the XBox app has a hidden log file somewhere that I could check?
