    Xbox game pass for PC - uninstalled games still take up storage space

    I uninstalled some games from my Xbox game pass (PC) using the uninstall option in the Xbox app (on PC).

    But the storage space in my SSD did not return to what it used to be, before the game was installed.

    We're talking about upwards of 10Gb. It can't be other files because the drive was solely for games.

    Anyone can help?
    cant wait to use it

    Is it possible that you have your xbox settings on instant on? If so you're xbox hasnt had a full restart in a while. You may just need to do a hard reset on it to refresh the cache and the memory would free up. Try holding the power button for 10 seconds
    till it turns off. Unplug the console for 1 minute. That is important. Then plug it back in an start ot up and look again.

    Quick idea, have you tried running the Windows Store Apps Troubleshooter?

    Windows Start Menu > Settings > Update & Security > Troubleshoot > then scroll down to Windows Store Apps and run it.

    Do let us know how you go so we can assist further :)
