Age of Empires 1 I didn't really get into enough to like.

Age of Empires 2 I consider one of the best games of all time.

Age of Mythology and Age of Empires 3 were substandard?

.

Now, I may have disagreed somewhat with that but....

.

"Halo Wars is PERFECT"?

.

WHAT?

Which one? Only ask as all 4 are available on GP in the UK

If I (from the UK) look at the UAE page for the Age of Empires Definitive Edition, for example, it says it is available on Game Pass:

Hi there George,

Thanks for reaching out here in Xbox Forums. I understand there is an issue with installing Age of Empires III. I recommend to try the following troubleshooting article: Troubleshoot
game installations on Windows 10.

Give this a try and let us know the results.

Tried the troubleshooting link, all Xbox except the last entry, which involved doing something with Powershell. I'm not nearly advanced enough to risk messing things up through some dumb mistake. Sorry.

I finally did get AOE 3 to install, but there was an initialization error at the end. I tried again, and that time there were 3 programs that the system asked to be installed...DirectX 9.0, DirectPlay, and .NET Framework 3.5 (includes .NET 2.0 and 3.0).
That's what the last one said after it was installed. After installing them I rebooted the system, but then I discovered the installation didn't include an icon on the desktop, which it normally does. Went to Control Panel and AOE 3 was there, but of course
you can't open it from Control Panel. At least, I don't know how you can. So I searched for it through Start, and there was nothing. Then I used File Explorer, and again, no match for the search. I know it's in there. And it's probably very simple for
everybody else, but I have no clue how to find it and get it to run. If it will.

I'd appreciate any help. Thanks so much.
