Can i edit windowsApps folder?

TEMPORARY FIX:

renaming the windowsapp folder into something else allowed me to create an other windowsapp folder. Now I can install games to my D drive.

Only problem is that I have an unused windowsapps folder that I still can't delete.

The error crops up because when you try to set the hard drive as default save location it tries to create a new 'WindowsApps' folder. However, it can not make this folder because it already exists and is protected from alterations due to its folder permissions.

What you need to do:

• Take ownership of the hidden WindowsApps folder on your hard drive -
  not the one on C:\ drive (your SSD). The WindowsApps folder will be in the root directly of any other drive.
• Once you have full access, delete the WindowsApps folder from this hard drive,

Information on how to take ownership of WindowsApps folders can be
found here. Remember, in your case, you need to take permission of the old WindowsApps folder, which on a second hard drive should be located in the Root Directory of the D:\ drive.

Once the folder is gone, try setting the hard drive as your new default location. All being well, Windows will create a new WindowsApps folder and you can start using it again.

Hello.

So, I've already taken ownership of the WindowsApp and XboxGames folders on my drive from an earlier time of trying to troubleshoot a bug in Forza.

Edit: Today I booted my PC and two of my games suddenly reappeared. Doom is still missing from my library. Even weirder tho, the two games that are missing are not the ones I see in the XboxGames folder on my external, but in the WindowsApp folder. The XboxGames folder has the lingering Forxa files and Doom, and neither show up in my library. Also, I can once again select the default drive to something else. For now I have set my default drive to the external. I'm still not sure if the WindowsApp folder resolved itself or if the root cause of the issue still exists in both folders, or the Xbox App itself.

You will find the WindowsApps folder in this path. C:\Program Files\WindowsApps

You didn't want me to delete the WindowsApp Folder you wanted me to delete the WpSystem folder.

It's just that one partition. I can see the WindowsApps folder.
