Fix for Game Pass for PC Admin Error (0x80070005)

I have found a fix that I have found to have worked even after multiple restarts:

  • Open the Settings app (the gear in the start menu)
  • Open Accounts
  • Click Sign-in Options
  • Scroll down to Privacy
  • Uncheck "Use my sign-in info to automatically finish setting up my device and reopen my apps after an update and restart."
  • Restart your device

It seems that this setting was preventing my Gaming Services app from opening.

My speculation leads me to believe that this app provides admin access to the Xbox (beta) app.

Your are genius. Have been trying to log back into Exodus since 06/19. Your solution perfectly worked for me. Hope others try your solution and find out whether it works for them.

I left it as default, which applies all of the tools.

However since the problem seems to be due to permissions you could try just the registry related ones to start with.
