To All of U on PC having a DCOM error with FH4 (and maybe to those having Activation issue),
Try this method (I used it for solving problems with MS Store Apps and for FH3)
Firstly, I you haven't already, Reset your FH4 (Apps&features->fh4->options->reset)
Then, what I did - wasn't in original Post, stopped Windows services like WindowsUpdate and all *Xbox* related services running.
followed by:
Using a command line in PowerShell admin "get-appxpackage Microsoft.GamingServices remove-AppxPackage -allusers"uninstall Gaming services.
And now the main part:
"
1. Go to C:\Program Files\WindowsApps find 2 gaming services folders, take ownership and delete. (my comment: Not Necessary)
2. Open RegEdit as an administrator and delete the following:
Keys.
[HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Software\Classes\Local Settings\MrtCache\C:%5CProgram Files%5CWindowsApps%5CMicrosoft.GamingServices_2.45.11001.0_x64__8wekyb3d8bbwe%5Cresources.pri]
[HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Software\Classes\Local Settings\MrtCache\C:%5CProgram Files%5CWindowsApps%5CMicrosoft.Gamingservices_2.45.11001.0_x64__8wekyb3d8bbwe%5Cresources.pri\1d6937194966bce]
Services.
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\GamingServices]
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\GamingServicesNet]
The version numbers may be different depending on what you have installed."My Note:
Delete Not only ~5CMicrosoft.GamingServices_2.45.11001.0_x64_~ BUT Any version you have in your Registry (I had at least 7 versions of Gaming services)
so I deleted every line...
"
3. Restart your PC."
"
4. Once restarted open Microsoft Store find Gaming Services and install"
NOTE: Install services using PowerShell Admin command line: start ms-windows-store://pdp/?productid=9MWPM2CQNLHN
"
5. Restart PC"
I hope that will help to some (if not to majority) of you people with sort of kind a problem regarding Forza Franchise on PC.
