Question PC Xbox App Game Error 0xc0ea0001

[WinSoft]

On my PC on one certain game I’ve had an issue when loading it, an error comes up with the code: 0xc0ea0001

Looking online a Microsoft support page it told me to run a command to stop licence manager in CMD and this worked.

It then happened again a few days later so I looked online and lots of people on Reddit have recommended stopping the Gaming Service under services.mse - (https://www.reddit.com/r/Starfield/comments/167atzu/pc_game_pass_error_0xc0ea0001)

I did this and the Xbox app was slower to load but then worked fine and since then I’ve not had any further issues on that PC.

The thing is it’s now happening on my other PC and I’m nervous about stopping the Gaming Service again as there’s two, one for local system and one for user system.

Have I done anything wrong by stopping services? Can I stop both Gaming Services and will they run again by itself when triggered? I’ve not deleted anything, just stopped it.

Some advice would be super helpful. Also, does anyone else experience this problem?

some games may not work right with it stopped, so if you do run into any problems, just enable it again.

I found a fix that worked for me after trying everything else:

Close Xbox App and any other Xbox feature you’re using on your PC.
Press the Windows key plus X.
Open Windows PowerShell (Admin) from the drop-down menu.
Type the following commands, one after the other (type and press Enter). windows power shell fix xbox app

Get-AppXPackage -AllUsers |Where-Object {$_.InstallLocation -like "*SystemApps*"} | Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register "$($_.InstallLocation)\AppXManifest.xml"}

Get-AppXPackage | % {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register "$($_.InstallLocation)\AppXManifest.xml" -verbose}

Get-AppXPackage -AllUsers | Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register "$($_.InstallLocation)\AppXManifest.xml"}

After these commands, you should restart your PC, and try using the app again.
Re-Instal Gaming Services Through the Power Shell
Our last recommendation is forcing Gaming Services to re-install using a PowerShell command. The fix can resolve advanced corruption by restoring all of the app’s system files and cache.
Here’re the steps:
Click the Windows key plus X and open Windows PowerShell (Admin),
Type the following command:

get-appxpackage Microsoft.GamingServices | remove-Appxpackage –allusers
reinstall-microsoft-gaming-service
The operation may take several minutes. Afterward, reboot your computer, and open the Xbox App again.

Thank you, sorry, I should have said I stopped the service and it then re-started itself as it's set to automatic.

Thank you for the link and for the information, it's very helpful.
