    I'm at a total loss what to do.

    • I moved a hard drive from my old computer to a new computer expecting the Xbox app could do what Origin, Steam, Epic, and everything else under the sun does just fine - detect the games and bring them in. Boy howdy it crapped everywhere
    • I cannot install anything I previously had. It just says something unexpected happened
    • If I click the support button, no matter the browser I use, I just get a spinning Xbox icon forever
    • None of the games will launch. You click play nothing happens even for the new ones I've installed
    • Xbox Games folder is completely empty
    How the heck do I just talk to a human being (via voice)? I keep getting redirected to forums but this thing is 100% borked on a completely new computer.

    :)

    Cant install Halo MCC

    I have the same issue. The MCC app got stuck in a wierd "has Update" but wont update loop. Xbox app can't launch the game. So I uninstalled it and tried reinstalling it. The uninstall didn't free up the disk space, the reinstall wouldn't complete, just says
    installing. I tried in MS Store app, the install doesn't even start downloading before it errors out with a "0x803FB107" error. Tried a number of things, not getting closer to a solution. The Outer Worlds wont even launch either...

    To answer how this went: I gave up on the app. Came back like a week later and it was suddenly working again. No idea why. Exact same thing just happened to a friend of mine which is what reminded me of this thread.

    Hi GrantCurell,

    We understand your sentiment in trying to launch and install games from Xbox app. This is not the experience that Microsoft wishes you to have. As your support advisor, let us check on this together and sort this out in timely manner.

    As per your description, this new computer should be able to launch and install games just fine however you were facing error messages that hinders the PC to do so. To better isolate the issue, we would like to ask for few questions.

    1. May we ask for the current Windows OS build, edition and version of your PC?
    2. Will you be able to install game and apps using the Microsoft Store without any issue or error message/code?
    3. Please post a screenshot of error message/code of your issue. Please conceal any personal information.
    4. May we know if you have been part of Windows Insider or Xbox Insider? Is the current PC you are using is on Insider's build?
    5. May we ask for the troubleshooting you have done so far?
    Here are list of support articles you can check:

    How to install and uninstall a PC game on a Windows device

    How to find out if a game will play on your Windows device

    Troubleshoot game installations on a Windows device
