I downloaded skyrim and it doesnt work whenever the internet is off. It says specifically "can't launch". I completed the license transfer today but the issue still persists.
Xbox 360 games on the 360 don't require internet to run under any circumstance. Are you using the very same account you purchased Skyrim with? Did you download it on the system after doing the transfer, or did you copy the files from another 360 system to it?I downloaded skyrim and it doesnt work whenever the internet is off.

They do if the game is downloaded on another system. It requires being logged in.Xbox 360 games on the 360 don't require internet to run under any circumstance.

If you did download it on this system, that means your account was transferred successfully from your other system.
Haven't seen any "can't launch" errors on the 360..
Then he should delete it and download it again on this system. Will the game still require internet to launch after that? (i don't think so)They do if the game is downloaded on another system.
Everytime? Even if the account that owns the game is on that system?It requires being logged in.
Yes, it's to prevent account sharing.Then he should delete it and download it again on this system. Will the game still require internet to launch after that? (i don't think so)

Is that answer for my 2nd question or all?Yes, it's to prevent account sharing.
So this only happens when two systems are registered to said account?My guess is he'll have to call Microsoft or log in to his account on the pc to remove the old system. That's what I think the problem is.
That I'm not sure. I was thinking it's not exactly like the switch as you can play games on multiple systems, just have to be signed in at the same time. I'm not exactly sure how the primary system thing worksSo this only happens when two systems are registered to said account?
So even if the account was transferred to the next system completely, and was removed from the older system, the old system will remain the primary system to the account, and should be deleted from the Xbox site to keep only the new system, only then the game will work without the online requirement?
I don't even remember if you can have 2 Xbox 360 systems linked to an account.. It should be just with one iirc..That I'm not sure.

I think that's what's happening to the op. It's the only reason I can think that he'd have to be signed in to play any games.I don't even remember if you can have 2 Xbox 360 systems linked to an account.. It should be just with one iirc..
