You mean with other logins on windows?

Yes, I found a few posts how to do it, you have to add yourself as a user under the "other user" and switch the store account to yours to install.

I had a weird issue with it not expecting my more-than-4-digit pin that I had to change to a 4 digit one before adding my login.

No like on Xbox. Myself and my brother game share so trying to see will it work on PC with Game Pass.

Confused. I shared my game pass to another user on Windows - they are able to play gamepass games that I have access to. Apologies if I misunderstand what you are trying to do.

Interesting, I thought this wasn't possible. So when the 2nd user plays game pass games are they on their own xbox account? Or are they signed in as you?

Another user on the same PC?

Yes.

I think these are the steps I followed (you need to be in the same family under Microsoft accounts I think)

Great stuff, thanks for sharing.

Do you have to stay logged into the store on the 2nd PC? Guess I'll try it and see...

Hmm, good question, I'll have to check. This was an attempt by me to pacify another member of the household with two point hospital.

IIRC my account downloads the game, they are free to sign in and run it (like the account picker on the Xbox)

Question for anyone that changed their region to UK to get GamePass ultimate at launch.

I did that at the time and I'm good till 2022

Just redeemed a microsoft reward for a month of GamePass ultimate and got the code via email.

I'm getting an error saying my sub is a different region to the code.

I can change my region on the app or is there more to do, can't remember fully.

Or will my sub always be a UK sub until it expires?

You can change your region on the console to enter the code. You'll need to do that for extending your sub from now on unless you wait for it to expire first.

I changed everything on the console back to the UK and it seems the code went through OK.

I'll have to remember this in future. Thanks.

Let it expire, load up on Gold, then upgrade your gold to Ultimate by buying a one month Ultimate code.
