If you are getting this error message then this means that you are trying to play a game or something that has been purchased using a different user profile on your Xbox.
One way of getting around error 0x803f9006 is by signing in with the user profile that has made the purchases or has Xbox Game Pass if it’s a game on the service you are trying to play. Or you can do something else as we show below.

But this can also lead to issues like the error The Person Who Bought This Needs To Sign In. If you are wanting to play a game on your Xbox One or Xbox Series X|S that has been purchased on a different profile this can easily be done and you do not need to purchase the game on all profiles or have Xbox Game Pass on all profiles. You can share your purchased games and game pass on the Xbox which is what we show you how to do below.
