hello there! i have the windows store version of the game and i can not use the trainer ,i tried following the steps by running trainer first then launcher and then game and the game wont open and it give a message saying something about being offline ,maybe i am doing something wrong but please let me know if there is any workaround
You have to be OFFLINE before you start the game (like WiFi turned off - LAN cable unplugged).
-Run the trainer.
-Run the launcher (follow steps until it prompt game launch)
-Turn off WiFi/network cable.
-Launch Gears 5.
-Click Okay in Launcher.
The trainer should now activate with F1.
hi there ! thanks for your reply! i was able to find the problem and everything works now,i just cant get any achievements for the game
Hi there I'm having the similar issue and I can't figure out what to do. Would you be kind enough to share the steps you've taken to make it work?
I'm playing the game with Xbox Game Pass Ultimate and was previously able to activate the trainer using the "start game while connected to internet then disconnect before activating trainer" method.
But I just updated the trainer and launcher and somehow, when I run the launcher, the message prompt that tells me to keep the launcher running and click ok upon exit doesn't pop up anymore. Once I click the prompt that says "Launch Gears 5 now then click ok once game starts" the launcher seems to just end.
Just to be clear, the steps i've taken to activate trainer are:
1. Launch trainer
2. start Gears 5 launcher
3. click ok to confirm that trainer is running already (prompt to launch gears 5 appears)
4. Launch Gears 5
5. Gets to main menu while online, then disables internet connection. confirmed connection to server lost
6. Clicks prompt to "launch gears 5 now then click ok once game starts"
Previously, the next prompt to keep the launcher active and start trainer works perfectly. Now, the launcher just disappears after step 6 and I can't start the trainer...
Edit: Never mind, I had to launch Gears 5 with internet disabled, then enable it to get to main menu, then disable it again to start trainer. For some reason that worked.

Hey mate, I've tried your method above and it works!
1. Launch the game with internet disabled
2. Enable the internet to get to the main menu or when prompted by xbox live
3. After logged-in / at the main menu, disable the internet.
4. Launch the "Gears of War Launcher" and then start the trainer
Thanks for your tips!
