    Xbox PC App - Duplicates in library


    There are duplicates in my library for many of my games. One for the game itself, and another for "Standard Edition". Why are these separate listings in the library? Its very unsightly.

    Xbox App and Microsoft Store app have already been reset and PC restarted.

    Hi! I'm Rostom, an Independent Advisor. I will be glad to help you here.

    When did this issue start to occur? Since you've already tried to reset the Microsoft Store and Xbox app, let's try to reinstall instead your gaming services app to refresh it.

    Right-click the Windows Start button in the lower-left corner of the main screen, and then select Windows PowerShell (Admin).

    In the Administrator: Windows PowerShell screen, type the following command and press Enter:
    Get-AppxPackage gamingservices -allusers | remove-appxpackage -allusers

    In the Administrator: Windows PowerShell screen, type the following command and press Enter:
    start ms-windows-store://pdp/?productid=9MWPM2CQNLHN

    Install the app on that page, and then select Yes when you receive the User Account Control (UAC) prompt.

    Restart PC and check if the issue is gone.

    microsoft gaming

    depends, was it for pc or the xbox console, if pc then download via the library in the windows store or xbox app. if console then download from within the library on the console.

    Just bought a PC download game. Where is it?

    if you purchased a game from microsoft on pc then it will be in the microsoft store library or the xbox app library. what game.

    Duplicate games in library.

    Sorry for the misunderstanding, from the picture seems to be that the only game installed that has a duplicate it's Forza 7, the other forza Games duplicated are not installed and this it's like i mentioned due to different version available for installation, if you have uninstalled the game and installed again sometimes could happen this, in this cases you need to uninstall the game and reset the Xbox app and the Microsoft store app

    Complete given below directions to reset the app in Windows 10.

    Step 1: Open the Settings app. This can be done by clicking its icon in the Start menu or simultaneously pressing Windows logo + I.

    Step 2: Click the Apps category icon and then click Apps & features to see all installed apps as well as classic desktop programs.

    Step 3: Click on the app that you want to reset to see the Advanced options link. Click on the same (advanced options link).

    Step 4: Finally, click the small Reset button. When you click the Reset button, you will find a small dialog box with “This will permanently delete the app’s data on this device, including your preferences and sign-in details.” Click the Reset button in the opened dialog box to reset the app.

    Step 5: Once the Reset is done, you will see a check sign next to the Reset button. And restart the Pc

    Duplicate games in library.

    Hi Riccardo,

    Unfortunately these appear to be for the same edition. I do not own or have installed two editions under the same game such as Forza. Forza 5 is a "standard" pre-order from the other day, and it's duplicated itself as well,

    This is not for a console, just a PC.

    Thanks for the reply though.
