    Xbox Windows 10 App Doesn't Recognize Games Pass


    Games Pass is only recognized when I go to the Get Games Pass page. When I go to any other pages or my settings, it says I need to buy Games Pass. Any help?

    :)

    Xbox Game Pass PC game .exe location?

    You dont as they are runed thru the xbox app not windows store
    That doesn't matter. True, they are installed and managed by the Game Pass Beta app, but the games still install to the same hidden Windows Apps folder as standard Windows 10 apps.

    To gain access you need to change some simple admin privileges.
    This website explains how

    Cannot download any game from the Xbox Beta PC app

    I would recommend starting with resetting the Xbox (Beta) App by going to Settings > Apps > Xbox (Beta) and selecting "Advanced Options". From there, please select "Reset" let it go through the process, restart your computer and try again.

    If that doesn't resolve it, then next thing we want to check is if you're able to download those games directly from the Windows 10 Store. The Windows 10 Store recognizes subscriptions and will let you install titles that are in Game Pass directly. See
    if you have any issue or problems installing from there. If so, we can identify that we're having general store issues and not problems with your Account or the Game Pass App and can provide more specific troubleshooting steps after.

    Look forward to hearing back and hope it works!

    Windows 10 Xbox App not recognizing an Xbox licensed Arcade Stick

    It works perfectly fine with Windows 10 - it just isn't recognized by the Xbox app for some odd reason - all other games work perfectly fine. Windows 10 sees it as a 360 controller according to the device manager as well.

    Game Pass on PC not working.

    So on your PC you need to make sure the
    game pass ultimate account is signed into the
    Microsoft store app, You might want to try installing the
    xbox(beta) app
    on windows as well and try downloading from there.

    Not all of the game pass games between Xbox and PC are the same, the xbox(beta) app will show you all the available and installed windows game pass games
