Xbox pretending it didn't invite me to test PC cloud gaming

Hello, when I'm playing on the cloud on my PC, for example, halo infinite, and someone tries to invite me to a game, it tells me that I have to download the game in order to accept invites, but I can invite them and play with them and it's not a problem. How can I fix that?

Hey,

The reputation checker didn't do anything to my activity.

So I have figured out that when I play a game through the Xbox app on PC it still says I'm playing Gears of War 2 which then prevents me from receiving invites from friends and inviting them to play games etc. However, when I launch a different game on Xbox Cloud Gaming, Halo Infinite for example, it does change my activity to Halo Infinite and I can receive invites like normal, but once I exit the game it reverts my activity back to Gears of War 2...

The offline and online doesn't change anything unfortunately. It seems like it is a Xbox Cloud Gaming bug so I'm not really sure what i can do to fix the issue

uumm can i pretend that i didn't just see that? LOL a pc is your computer.
