    Xbox game pass games are not opening


    Hi there,

    I just signed up for the 14 day trial for xbox game pass on Friday the 16th of March. Then I went and downloaded NBA2K17 which was included with game pass. The game was opening up fine until last night which an error message popped up saying "do you own
    this game or app". I checked if the subscription was still in my membership tab and it was. Is there a way to fix this issue?

    Thanks.

    :)

  2. Some games are not opening.

    Have you tried uninstalling and reinstalling the problem games? Perhaps something got corrupt and it's refusing to run.

    Do also you have the same problem with other installed games in your library that you haven't tried yet (if you have anymore)?

    I'm thinking the worst case scenario could be that the hard drive is showing signs of dying. Let's hope it's not that.

    Some games are not opening.

    Whenever I try to open a game it sends me to the store. In the store it says the game is installed and the option is to play. I press play and it once again opens the store. I thought it was only digital games but yesterday I tried two disc games that were
    doing the exact same thing. I've tried to hard reset a few times but nothing changes.

    XBOX GAME PASS GAMES NOT OPENING

    I'm Samy an independent advisor. Welcome to the Xbox community. How are you?

    It's an issue on the Xbox network that is affecting players' ability to open games. Xbox has already confirmed the issue, is investigating, and should resolve the issue as soon as possible.

    None of these helped. I believe that the problem is gaming services, but it will not uninstall. When I paste in the code to uninstall it, it shows this:

    Game Pass Games Not Opening

    Hi there! I'm more than happy to help you!

    I'm sorry you are experiencing this with your Xbox game pass games. No worries, let me help you sort this out.

    Kindly try to perform the following workarounds:

    1. Update Windows.

    Press the Start button on the taskbar, type settings, and then select Settings.
    On Windows 10, select Update & Security. On Windows 11, select Windows Update.
    On the Windows Update page, select Check for updates to see if any updates are available for your device.
    Once the updates have been downloaded, select Install now to start the installation.

    Following installation, I recommend that you restart your device so that the latest updates can take effect.

    2. Update the Xbox and Gaming services apps:

    Press the Start button on the taskbar, type store, and open the Microsoft Store app.
    Select Library.
    Under Updates & downloads, check if there are any updates available for the Xbox app or Gaming Services app. If an update is available, select Update.

    3. Update your game.

    Open the Xbox app for Windows.
    In My Library, select the game title.
    Select the More options (…) button and choose Manage.
    Select Files and then Check for updates.

    4. Repair the game.

    Open the Xbox app for Windows.
    In My Library, select the game title.
    Select the More options (…) button and choose Manage.
    Select Files and then Verify and Repair.

    5. Reinstall the Gaming Services app on your Windows 10/11 device:

    Press the Start button on the taskbar, type powershell, right-click on Windows PowerShell, and then select Run as administrator.

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

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

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

    start ms-windows-store://pdp/?productid=9MWPM2CQNLHN
    Install the app on that page and select Yes when you receive the User Account Control (UAC) prompt.

    Restart your device and try to install the game again.

    6. Reinstall your game.

    If you're having trouble getting a game to play, try uninstalling and then reinstalling the game. Occasionally, game files may get corrupted or altered, especially if you've had a malware problem or are running a game modification on your device.
