XBOX Game Pass won't install or play any games anymor

palex00 · Jul 1, 2021

Hey everyone.

A couple of days ago, I couldn't install any games through XBOX Game Pass anymore. Then it even said "Hey have problems installing or launching games? Try this:

https://support.xbox.com/en-US/help/errors/error-code-0x80073D26"

But the listed stuff doesn't work: I cannot find the upate KB5004476 for me to install. I also tried the "Still having problems?"-steps. Did not work either.

Now I can't even *launch* games. When I try to launch a game - for example Ikenfell - I get redirected to the Microsoft Store page for Game Services. Which is installed.

I'm going mad. This PC is less than a month old and I have all these problems. Formatting is not an option, I don't want to re-install 200GB of games.

:)

Thank you for the reply. Both the articles did not solve my problem.

Specifically, I can't do this step:

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

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

As Powershell will tell me: (German):

remove-AppxPackage : Fehler beim Entfernen. Wenden Sie sich an den Softwarehersteller. Der Bereitstellungsvorgang "Remove" mit Zielvolume "C:" für das Paket "Microsoft.GamingServices_2.53.17003.0_x64__8wekyb3d8bbwe" von " " ist mit dem Fehler 0x80070002 fehlgeschlagen.

It won't uninstall the games when you cancel your game pass, but you won't be able to play any of the games you have installed from the game pass subscription, unless you buy them, or get game pass again.

Happens after installed XBox Game Pass.

I deleted the xbox game pass my controller works normally as "XVD Devices" don't add/remove anymore.

Any methods to block the XVD devices add/remove themselves?

With Xbox Game Pass, you can download their games directly
to your console and play them offline. Please understand if your Xbox Game Pass subscription expires,
the game will remain installed, but you won't be able to play it until you either
resubscribe or purchase the game.
