Xbox App keeps asking me to download Gaming Services

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.

    Ok so I was finally able to get it to work basically I restarted my computer then went into where the folder named XboxGames is (it should be in your C drive) then I renamed it to something else and then made a new empty folder called XboxGames then I opened my xbox app and it started working.

    Good afternoon,

    If you search for the game in the Microsoft Store, you can download it there. When I did this, it immediately showed all my previously downloaded titles on the left side, where they were grayed out before. I think that this is just a bug in Game Pass. It happens to me periodically, and I've found that this is the best fix or remedy for the situation.

    Hope this helps,
