Xbox Game Pass PC stopped launching Resident Evil 7

Jay Trips · Dec 2, 2022

So, as the title says - Game Pass PC stopped launching Resident Evil 7. I recently just installed the most recent quality update to windows 10, then launched Resident Evil 7 from Game Pass as normal and everything was working fine. I continued to play for 20 minutes before the game crashed suddenly, now when I try to launch the game it just doesn't launch or it launches the loading splash screen for 1-2 seconds then immediately closes the game. I tried restarting my pc 3 times with no success at launching the game again. I tried launching the other games I have downloaded on Game Pass PC and they all launch and play perfectly fine with no issues, so the problem seems to be specifically just with Resident Evil 7.

I'm not sure what's causing this specific game not to launch and am unable to locate the issue because there is no error message and it has been working perfectly fine up until now. Has anybody else had this issue or know a fix for it?

Issue: Game Pass PC not launching Resident Evil 7 specifically after launching and running it perfectly fine previously. All other Game Pass PC games still work perfectly.

Recent changes: Small Windows quality update (The game launched fine after the update but crashed 20 mins later and stopped working)

Hope you're doing great today despite this

Let’s try to isolate the issue a bit more, for this :

1. Try uninstalling the most recent windows update, just in case it is the one causing conflicts

**don’t forget to disable automatic updates temporarily

2. Open task manager > select the startup tab > disable all the programs listed there temporarily
Restart the PC and try again

3. Do a clean boot in your PC and try again

Yes, I tried that earlier. All of my games work, except for Resident Evil 6 Resident Evil 7.

Because it was Resident Evil games that were working, I even tried my digitally downloaded Resident Evil games, but they work just fine.

Hey there Th1nkMcFlyTh1nk.

The content should be available for download on the PC. Have you been able to download Resident Evil 7 without any issues? Does the Season Pass show as purchased in the Windows store?
