Thankfully, it was all smooth sailing from there on out. That’s it that’s all I had to do and I already wasted hours trying to solve this issue. What was it? I simply had to reset the Windows 10 store & Xbox apps to their default settings (that’s two different apps). It made me both amused and angry that the solution was as simple as this. Even then, the Microsoft employee suggested a bunch of different solutions to this singular issue.įortunately, the very first solution I tried did the trick and solved the issue for me. What’s funny is that the question on the forum was originally posted one year ago in April 2021, but it was only as recent as earlier this month in April 2022 when a Microsoft employee/moderator answered the post. Luck struck when I finally found a permanent solution to my problem on an online Microsoft forum. However, it was frustrating because I had to change the registry and restart my laptop every time I wanted to install and play a new game. One solution that temporarily worked forced me to go into Windows Powershell and mess with the registry on my laptop, which is totally not recommended. I scoured through several forums and YouTube videos where many others were suffering from the same problem, and I tried each proposed possible solution I could find. I then spent several hours trying to troubleshoot my way to solving this issue or bug. The install button for each game was greyed out and I couldn’t click on them until I chose the install location, which I also couldn’t do. Then, things soured when I discovered that I couldn’t install any of the available games. After paying the required RM0.50, I immediately gained access to the service. Unfortunately though, my experience with Xbox PC Game Pass did begin somewhat disastrous. I’ve recently tried out the service for myself, and while it’s definitely not perfect, it’s certainly worth the subscription fee. The first three months for new subscribers only costs RM5.00 while subsequent months will only set you back RM15 for every month. At the time of writing, it is now officially available (you can subscribe now by heading over here). After being sidelined for many years, gamers in Southeast Asia rejoiced last month when Microsoft announced that the Xbox Game Pass, or rather, the Xbox PC Game Pass, is finally coming to the region (Malaysia, Indonesia, Philippines, Thailand, and Vietnam).
