    from settings, navigate to apps, there go to installed apps and search xbox app. Then press the 3 dots icon (...) and advanced options. There is a repair app button that fixes the issue.

    This was a fix to a parent's pc so I do not have the pc in front of me, but what I recall doing (and probably frowned upon).

    Deleted gameplatformservices.dll (yes you cannot run the command line but you can still delete system files! lol)

    Rebooted

    Went into settings and turned off the xbox app.

    Kind of a hack but it worked.

    You can't run CMD as administrator in S mode. That means there seems to be no known way to fix anything in Windows 11 S mode because there is no way to get out of S mode. I have tried everything. Suggestions?

    Hi, I would just like to say that neither of these worked.

    Thanks
