Why am I getting an update for Xbox App. I don't have gaming on my computer.

Should I allow this update.  My computer used for business not games or anything to do with playing .

Your PC probably has the Xbox app which Windows installs by default.

 

The app is periodically updated by the Microsoft Store as many of those apps are.

 

You can always uninstall the app if you will never use it.

 

The app will be alphabetically listed in the programs menu.

 

But yes, you can allow the app to be updated.
