piece of **** windows crashing Game Input reconfigure

I replied past month or so with a lengthy post of what that person should do and it would apply to you as well. Don't know where it is now but you really need to diagnose the reason more.

"Windows Installer reconfigured the product" either shouldn't happen all the time (I don't know which but it makes sense that it shouldn't be flagging as changing as that would mean something incorrect is happening to the files) or it should happen all the time and means nothing here (red herring). I don't know which and am not spending the time on it as I have other things to do.

Since the devs don't do anything then they probably feel its on the user side of things where something is going wrong and it definitely could be based on this topic. Its possible they can't reproduce it or something else so can't fix it as well but that also means there's a user side fix too even if a user feels its not correct.

You should look at it different such as if something is happening to the files or finding a different error should that one be a red herring, etc.

Unhelpful reply. I don't think anyone asked you to spend your time on this (unless you're secretly a Microsoft dev).

User after user is having the same issue; Microsoft Gameinput "reconfigured" then a reboot or system freeze moments later.

The common denominator is the redistributable, Xbox app and MS gaming services... not the user.

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.

+1 from me this time...

Come on Microsoft. In the last week I've had a reboot in a senior exec meeting and during an interview call.

This is a bit of a joke now. Please take a look at this.

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.
