I just got Game Pass a few days ago and haven't been able to play it once because every single time I hit on Install a screen telling me to Download Gaming Services keeps popping up even though I've already installed it numerous times. I'm turning to this because I have no idea what to do, I've already tried a bunch of different suggestions from people such as: Repairing and Reseting all the apps, I've tried to uninstall and install with Powershell, I've tried to update through the windows store, I've updated everything on Windows, I tried going into the registry and I deleted the GamingServices and GamingServices.net but Nothing works at all, I've completely given up on this, I feel scammed because I just got Game Pass and I haven't been to play a single game.
One weird thing I noticed and I don't know if this is normal is that when I go over to my account settings on the Xbox App on the segment where it says "GameInstall Options" I get some weird error that says "There was a problem loading installation locations. Try Again" But it never gives me that chance to change anything.

All unchanged, wallpaper/apps/icons/browser settings etc. not touched. It just overwrite windows files so probably something was missing or broken. Now when you alt+ctrl+del and go for services "Gaming Services" and "Gaming Services Net" is running, before that only Gaming Services Net was working and other one not. Even forcing him to launch didn't worked.

So basically this does a clean install of windows 10 22H2 and keeps your files
Do you get your desktop, taskbar icons, browser settings (i use brave) all unchanged ?
You know it's funny because not only do I get this constantly, but I also get the specific error code "0x8007001f" and ONLY that error code any time a game installation is attempted. I was in a chat with a microsoft support agent for probably over 2 hours trying ALL of their "fix" methods minus the reinstallation of Windows 11. Not a single one of them fixed the problem and at the end, they just told me that I would have to ask a windows support person rather than an xbox support person and I was just like really? It is a specific error code and they seemingly have 0 knowledge or info about it. Just today, I did a fresh reset and installation of windows 11 after saving all my stuff and what do you know! The problem is not fixed. What a scam.
I have the same issue.
@Update Guys I found solution that worked for me on Windows 10, not sure if it works on 11 as well.
Now Gaming Services and Gaming Services Net both working and finally could install games.
