GamerOS Windows 10 & 11 DIY Preset

garlin said:
I tried installing the current 23H2 preset, and Xbox App fails as reported.

1. Enabling WU background app updates didn't work for me (while I was impatiently waiting).

2. Downloaded Microsoft.GamingApp (and its dependent packages) using the PS script.

There's only one version available, as MS removes all previous Appx versions from the Store's history. From Explorer, clicking on the package file to install ends with a DesktopAppInstaller restricted features error.​

3. Running a PowerShell Add-AppxPackage command using the full dependencies worked:
Code: 
Add-AppxPackage -Path Microsoft.GamingApp_2408.1001.14.0_neutral_~_8wekyb3d8bbwe.msixbundle -DependencyPath Microsoft.UI.Xaml.2.8_8.2310.30001.0_x64__8wekyb3d8bbwe.appx, Microsoft.VCLibs.140.00.UWPDesktop_14.0.33728.0_x64__8wekyb3d8bbwe.appx, Microsoft.VCLibs.140.00_14.0.33519.0_x64__8wekyb3d8bbwe.appx

4. Launching the Xbox app, allowed it to self-update. It will complain you haven't updated the optional Game Bar & Feedback Hub.

Since Appx updates are deliberately broken in the original preset; it suggests either restoring WU to work again, or have users to download the current Xbox app and integrate it into the install image. The problem is allowing App updates is better, but GamerOS has always wanted to avoid them in the first place. I believe this problem has always existed, but previous gamers had never complained.

The workaround is to use the PS script, download Xbox Gaming App and its dependent packages, and add them from the Updates screen.

Man I hate that Xbox is so tightly integrated with the stuff I need. I don't and will never use Xbox since I have had mostly used PC for the majority of my life. Last one I used was Atari, original nes....never used PS or Xbox

You need to restore EFS (Encypted File System) in the preset. Open the preset in Notepad, and remove:
Code: 
                <c>efsfeature 'Encrypting File System (EFS) - Feature'</c>

I have it enabled already...

Edit: I even installed gameapps from your script and installed it live still not working, i was googling and saw gameapps gets broken sometimes,

tried DNS 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 + disabled IPv6 still no luck, what to dig next?

Edit 2: downloaded storepurchase via your script and installed it live, still no luck

Check and sync time

System File Checker(might be a weird issue that gets fixed)

Delete SoftwareDistribution Folder in windows

Restart and try

Also we're is this file being downloaded too? Desktop?

will check all the above, and its being downloaded in the default path wherever that is... i havent changed anything
 
Funny - 2 sides story on a forum - and nobody ask for a preset could solve the problem.
I'm a bit of surprised!
 
Go to the NTL folder and look for the folder preset - should be easy to upload your latest "preset.xml".
