Buy from ms store?

I’d like to know if the Gaming Services app is necessary.

Yes

@OrbitalWheat723

I had an issue with it in the past and since then I haven’t been able to make it work.
Until then I was on gamepass.

Run windows update and click “check for updates”.

Updates an issue that might redirect you to the Microsoft Store page for Gaming Services when you try to install or start an Xbox Game Pass game on your Windows 10 device.
