Cannot install games for windows marketplace, games/install crashing because xlive.dll

I'm having a problem with a bunch of my games crashing because they say xlive.dll is missing. When I try to uninstall and reinstall Games for Windows live using the link online it starts installing and then gives me the error

Error writing to the file: C:\Windows\SysWOW64\xlive.dll. Make sure you have access to the directory.
People said on the forums that games for windows reinstall should solve this problem. Since the XLIV error is the one I am trying to fix I do not understand why the installer would also break due to this file. How can I get rid of these errors?

  • Can't sign in to games for windows marketplace using windows live id error: 80048439

    The problem:

    I bought a game a few days ago, but cannot sign in to games for windows marketplace. I try to connect using the GOOD live ID and the password that I used when buying this game on the website (it works when signing on my live account on internet and on this forum). A few seconds later, he says:

    "Unable to connect. ID Windows Live ID or the password entered is not valid. Enter your information and you reconnect. "error: 80048439 cannot authenticate.

    I tried several fixes that are found on the pages of support for games for windows live.

    I have reset my password

    I deleted all my cookies, cache files and internet (several times)

    When I try to connect to live in the game (using a steam game) I can't connect either.

    I looked in the port forwarding, but there is no explanation on how to do it on my router (actiontec q1000). I don't know if the port is the problem or what. It is not a new modem, and it worked a few months ago.

    I used gfw live years and had no problems until now and I swear that I use the password and login name.

    Any info I can get to solve this problem is appreciated.

  • Why the "games for Windows Marketplace" will not be launched?

    Why the "games for Windows Marketplace" will not be launched? I tried to launch the start screen appears and when you look at the Task Manager, GFWLive.exe and GFWClient.exe show, but after a few seconds the splash screen and the GFW deals disappear and never loads the user interface. I tried to reinstall the client and the .NET Framework, but which has no effect. I also tried a couple of registry cleaners, but still no change.

    I'm sure that the last entry in the log has something to do with my problem.

    RESOLVED: "gamename has stopped working", games for Windows Live problem *.

    OK, finally solved.

    I uninstalled what is called "Windows Live ID Sign - in Assistant", as well as the usual games of .NET, MS for Windows - LIVE and games for Windows Marketplace Client, then ran a registry cleaner (I used CCleaner, which is free) and restarted.
    I then reinstalled GWL from MS. site
    I hope this helps someone else.
