I just got a windows 8 tablet with this app on it and accidentally signed into my old Xbox account. Figuring I would sign out and fix the simple mistake but... there seems to be no obvious way to sign out. Uninstalled and re-installed and it somehow remembered that account and now the app is entirely useless because its permanently signed into an account haven't used in 3 years

I am running an Alienware M14x with Windows 8.1 pro. Every time I open this app it freezes my computer to the point I have to restart my computer by holding down the power button. It wont let me log into a separate account other than what I have as my log in. I have used help feature but its not clear, they run around the actual fix. If I have several Xbox accounts I should be able to log into them as I see fit. Fix the freeze issues and the log in issues.

I guess it's impossible to easily change users.. I use a different email address for my xbox live account and can't find a way to change it. it will only login using my main email
11 March 2014
So out of date it is completly useless!
27 October 2013
I have no idea how to log out of a profile from xbox games, it confuses me because there is no log out button!! someone please help me!!
28 October 2012
when I was setting up Windows 8, I wasn't carful and it created a new xbox live account. now I cant sync my real account with Windows 8. there is no setting to allow me to switch.
26 January 2014
Why does it automatically log you in, but not let you sign out? I haven't used that email address since the original xbox came out! There has to be a way to log out and log back in with my correct information...besides creating another account like Microsoft recommends.
29 October 2012
I never wanted an xbox account, but when I was trying to play solitaire, it seems there is not any in the operating system anymore and windows 8 took my account info and created an xbox tag and account without asking me. Now they tell me there is no way to disconnect.

How come my avatar looks hunched back? Likewise, where's the option to edit our avatar?
3 November 2012
I accidentally had a new Xbox live account get generated and attached to my Windows 8 account. It is impossible to fix this. I spent an hour talking to customer support online. I now have to figure out whether to abandon my Gamerscore and Microsoft points, or my Skydrive and Windows 8 settings.
21 November 2013
Why can't I use my own xbox live account? Oh because it has a different e-mail that isn't my microsoft e-mail. Stupid. Now this app has made me some bull crap new account that I can't sign out of. I will change my review when this is changed.
29 November 2013
Melhorou demais após a atualização, só falta um cache para os avatares, pois se rolar a página eles ficam com o personagem padrão branco e só depois de um segundo é que aparece o avatar do jogador. Por favor, adicionem conversa de voz. :-) please.
Não dá para selecionar todos os amigos para enviar mensagem. No site dá.

This version of the Games app is only for Atom processors and says it won't install because I don't meet minimum requirements. I have an Intel processor and have the Games app installed (was by default upon loading Windows 8). So, will there be an update compatible with Intel processors?

Party Chats, Audio Messages, a place to house our games bought in the store, Games on Demand titles...their is a lot missing from this app to give us that feeling of Xbox 360 on the go (for mobile PCs). All these features MUST be added and be cross-platform enabled with Xbox 360. You have to find a way to easily get every Indie Game, Live Arcade Game and Games on Demand title from Xbox 360 to W8, and when I say easily, I mean like you did with backwards compt with Xbox 1 games on Xbox 360.

Can't sign out. This app deserves zero stars.
2 January 2013
The app automatically signs in with the computer's email, and there is no way to sign out. I've had a different email set up for my xbox for years, and it's different than the one I use for my computer. The app should let users sign in with whatever email addresses they want, rather than automatically using the one on the computer. It's stupid!
1 December 2012
it is impossible to sign off and login and connect your real account with this app. very frustrated with the interface
29 September 2013
I can not sign out huge flaw in the system
31 December 2012
Xbox keep signing me in under someone else's name and I can't get sign out. Why not leave well enough alone and not change what worked so well in older versions of Windows. Bring back the old games.
6 August 2012
Please add voice chat support in this app, it would make it awesome!
9 November 2014
I cant link my primary xbox account to my computer, since I cant log out of the useless one I never use, so I tried uninstalling it, and now I cant even reinstall it, it says its already installed. If I could, I would rate it a 0 star, that's how useless it is.
9 November 2012
Can't believe we cant choose which xbox live account we log into without having to switch user accounts.
27 October 2012
you fix the ability to use a different account. I don't want Windows to create a new gamertag for me...I want to use my own. Please fix this ASAP!!!!!!!!!!
3 January 2013
I am unable to use this app because it shows that it needs an update, and there is no update available! Very frustrating.
30 October 2012
I accidentally created a new Gamertag with this app, and now I can't add my actual Xbox gamertag. I can't even sign out of it! Stupid. Please fix so I can upload my actual gamertag onto Windows 8!
26 October 2012
The 5 line answer still makes no sense on how to switch between your auto generated xbox account and a real xbox account. It's quite annoying. I wished they just had the switch user feature like they do on Xbox Live for the 360.
17 August 2012
So far it's useless...
7 August 2012
Whooptie doo! I found an awesome game! Oh wait... click on your PC to play it on your XBOX... huh?
30 December 2012
I have an exbox account and have had for years. This crapping thing made me an account and did not let let me use my existing account this thing smells
