I have created a Xbox app using UWP and side loaded it to Xbox but I cant access the local host but can access the server though. I checked and found a solution like disable network isolation but that's for app side loaded in PC. How can I do that in Xbox.please help

Try to enable the Private Network Client/Server capability in the Package.appxmanifest file by opening it, switching to the Capabilities tab and ticking the box next to this capability. This enables localhost network communication.

Connect to your Xbox through PowerShell via IP with this command:

  1. net start WinRM
  2. Set-Item WSMan:\localhost\Client\TrustedHosts -Value "machine-name or IP Address"
  3. Enter-PSSession -ComputerName "machine-name or IP Address" -Credential "machine-name or IP Address or localhost"\Administrator
  4. checknetisolation loopbackexempt -a -n="Your App Package Family Name"

for getting App Package Family Name go to Package.appxmanifes file > Packaging tab > Package Family Name
