piece of **** windows crashing Game Input reconfigure

Fantastic tip. I guess at least this way I can play games without having crashes.

Hopefully somebody from Microsoft checks out this thread, seems like a pretty cut and dry Xbox issue.

TL:DR - Microsoft has failed in it's years of support for its community.

I have been also dealing with this for months, and since my screenshots from the reliability monitor is the same, no reason to drag it on further.

I have scoured the web to find a fix, and to no avail. I have tried multiple search engines and type:
"Windows Installer reconfigured the product. Product Name: Microsoft GameInput. Product Version: 10.1.22621.1011. Product Language: 1033. Manufacturer: Microsoft Corporation. Reconfiguration success or error status: 0.

"

I have come to accept that Microsoft knows of this issue and come to 2 conclusions:

1. Microsoft knows of the issue, and does not know how to fix it.
2. Not enough people are having the issue/complaining so it's set on the back burner.

I have 2 HP laptops, identical. When I get reports ready for work, i know I best save every 5 min or lose all my precious work. If I'm playing League of Legends or any other game, I can expect that I'm going to restart.

I have reached out to HP for support but they say it's a Microsoft issue and want me to pay for an extra service even though the laptops are still in warranty. Microsoft won't fix the issue, so my hands are literally tied.

Microsoft, you have me in a tight spot with this issue. I have used windows since 3.1, I have purchased every new version from 95 to windows 11. Back in the day, support would do everything they could to help. Now, we get nothing more than helpers that are not even paid by Microsoft.

Microsoft, if anything I'm very disappointed in your false commitment to help those who actually purchased your software.

Day 3 of full on use, and well over a week since a gameinput crash. Deleting all of the Xbox bits seems to be the way.

But yes, kind of a stitch up as regards gamepass. For what it's worth, I've found that as long as you have a desktop shortcut to a game which you've downloaded through gamepass, the game will still work after Xbox app, gameservices etc has been deleted... assuming you haven't uninstalled the game too, of course! Bizarrely, uninstalling the Xbox app doesn't uninstall the game, it just sits there on your hard drive...

I should have included the following points.

I cannot do any video compressing as it 99.9 % trips this issue and crashes.

I cannot play any game and have a movie or video running on another screen. I haven't noticed if it does the same when streaming a movie like Netflix, just when the movie is playing from my hdd.

There's a solution thread out there where using a free program called Wub will block any updates thus solving the problem...doesn't work for ****.

Overall, I'm limited to doing only 1 thing at a time.

I can stream video and audio shows to my radio station and video platform so far but nothing else can be running at the same time.

Only solution I've found or I've been lucky so far. I can play a game but nothing else can be running. I manually transfer any audio or video editing/compressing to my laptop I added to the same desk using a flash drive and do the work there.

**** the "Pro's" they all just copy paste the same **** idea's other "Pro's" have already posted elsewhere. They ain't truly interested in fixing ****. I tell

you right now that you take away the MVP point system they use to score their levels and they all disapear. No points, No help (not that they are time and again really helping)

Okay so wasting more time but here we go again.

Obviously the application shouldn't reconfigure daily+, but here we are, and not even uninstalling it can prevent this.

I've done all of the below and more:

Full suite of memtests and disk checks - not ram/drives

Full suite of Windows installation tests: sfc/dsim/drivers/bios/full clean installs x2 with different images - not my image, and furthermore from my experiences the Xbox app itself seems to be the culprit.

This alone knocks out virtually everything you could have suggested short of doing a whole new build, which lets be frank, if the hardware is fine according to every test known and everything else works swimmingly, well I think Occam's razor is a thing right?

My reliability monitor shows Microsoft Gameinput re-configuring at the identical moment of every crash I've had. Period. No other crashes no other variations.

I'd love for it to be something else, but frankly I've exhausted every experiment and test I've seen or can conjure, including the nuclear clean installs (multiple times), and it's given me nothing but wasted time.

Hey, I'm feeling your pain! Can I just ask what type of processor/motherboard you're using? Just trying to figure out if there are any correlations...

I'm on a Ryzen 5900x/X570.
