Yesterday I did this and today I can't play FH4, it says that it can't connect to online services.

Does anyone know if there a way I can revert it all? or a specific way to fix the connection issue.

I suppose you have 2 possible ways: 1) format and reinstall Windows 2) use the repairing tool of Windows

Good Luck

maybe some of the domains blocked was used for FH4?

Forza Horizon 4 probably requires some of the Xbox apps this script uninstalls:

        "*Microsoft.XboxApp*"
        "*Microsoft.XboxGameOverlay*"
        "*Microsoft.XboxIdentityProvider*"
        "*Microsoft.XboxSpeechToTextOverlay*"

I don't know how to reinstall all of them. Reinstalling the xbox app and game bar might be a start.

Cloud save file sync can be re-enabled by running these commands, probably need to do it in an admin terminal.

Get-ScheduledTask XblGameSaveTaskLogon | Enable-ScheduledTask 
Get-ScheduledTask  XblGameSaveTask | Enable-ScheduledTask 

Edit: Actually, don't do the below. It might make things worse; it looks like Debloater deletes the backup app installation files. 😠 ~If that doesn't work, this solution from the Microsoft support forum fixed my installation of Forza Horizon 3 a while back?~

~a: Press Windows key + X.~ ~b: Then click Command Prompt(Admin)~ ~c: Now type the following command and hit enter~ ~Get-AppxPackage windowsstore | Remove-AppxPackage~ ~Get-AppxPackage xboxapp | Remove-AppxPackage~ ~After a restart (signing out and back in didn't work for me) I entered the following command (again in a powershell in admin):~ ~Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers| Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register “$($_.InstallLocation)\AppXManifest.xml”}~ ~This will install any missing built-in apps you may have uninstalled.~
