    Quick question: There's a youtube tutorial that says you need to set "Home" console after you login your game share partner's account. That's no longer necessary? And we shouldn't delete the other account right?

    In order to share the games you need to set your partner's account as home for it to say "ready to install." Deleting the account is up to you, it will not effect the downloads after the process is complete.

    What happens if the person decided to set another xbox as his home xbox, will you lose access the his games?

    Yes you will. The only way you can play their games is to log onto their account.

    In order for you to play the other person's games you will have to set their account to your xbox one as their home. Otherwise you can only play signed into their account. Hope that makes sense.

    at first, Thank you a lot!
    2nd:
    so you log in your partners account on your xbox
    set as home console(?)
    download the games you want to have
    enjoy

    BUT you can PLAY the game with your account?
    If he/she sets another console as home console you are not longer able to play the game with another account than your partners?
    what if you set your console offline? (I plan to only gameshare single player games)
    and last: doesn´t it affect the game progress if a stranger uses your account to play?
