Here are the answers to some of the most commonly asked questions about Genisys.

OpenSSL-related crashes Since the update adding Xbox Live authentication, Genisys now **requires** the OpenSSL extension for PHP. * Windows/Android users may download updated PHP packages from [here](https://itxtech.org/download/PHP%20for%20Genisys/). * Users of Docker can just update with a pull. * Linux/Mac users not using Docker will need to recompile PHP with the latest script. ([Linux build scripts](https://github.com/iTXTech/php-build-scripts/blob/master/linux-build-install.sh))

How to enable Xbox Live authentication? Genisys includes capability to enforce Xbox Live authentication. This is strongly recommended for public servers. Enforcing Xbox Live authentication allows getting rid of auth plugins, reduces hackers and allows more effective banning.

To enable this feature, simply set `online-mode` to `true` in `server.properties`, and restart your server.

NOTE: This feature requires the OpenSSL extension for PHP.

I cannot connect to servers hosted on the same computer with Windows 10 Edition Beta. How can I fix this?
This is due to certain network security restrictions which are in place on Windows apps. To fix this, do one of the following:

Method 1: PowerShell (credits to @robske110)

Open Windows PowerShell and run the following command:

`CheckNetIsolation LoopbackExempt -a -n="Microsoft.MinecraftUWP_8wekyb3d8bbwe"`

When you next open the game, you should be able to connect to your local server. If not, try the second method.

Method 2: Modify your options.txt (credits to @timm1292)

1. Navigate to `%localappdata%\Packages\Microsoft.MinecraftUWP_8wekyb3d8bbwe\LocalState\games\com.mojang\minecraftpe`.
2. Open the `options.txt` in a text editor and find the option `dev_uselocalserver`. Set it to 1 and save the file.
3. Restart your game and attempt to connect to your server.
