Can I turn my laptop into a screen for my Xbox One using an HDMI to VGA cable?

I want to use my laptop as a "monitor" for my HDMI consoles, but since HDMI ports are only HDMI out on computers I was wondering if I could use an HDMI to VGA cable.

No need. Simply use the Xbox app to stream from your console.

no, any video ports on a laptop are only for outputting the laptop signal out to another TV or monitor, you cannot connect a video device to it to run on the laptop display

I have the same problem, only my Xbox app won't open or sign in.
