Can't install Game Pass for PC games to one of my hard drives

BrennanCraft · Jun 19, 2021

I have 4 drives on my PC. 3 of them are able to have games installed to them, but one is giving me an error every time. In the error details it says that "something unexpected happened" and gives me a 0x00000001 error code

If you haven't already, I would recommend trying the troubleshooting steps mentioned here: Error 0x80073D26 or 0x00000001 occurs when you try to install, update, or launch a game on a Windows 10 device | Xbox Support

I had the same error with Minecraft dungeons, and i solved installing in my Hard drive principal the C: one.

I have two drives on my laptop i don't know why i can't install on my second drive, i can install all the game pass games except Minecraft dungeons u.u

Thank you! This solved part of the problem. The other problem which was told to me by Windows was that I was installing it to my hard drive which does not have Windows installed. I had to put it on the drive where Windows was installed.

What exactly does this message about drives say exactly? Perhaps you could post a picture?

The Windows Store - which Game Pass uses to install Game Pass games - should allow you to use any of your drives. My PC has four drives, three internal and one external and they can all be used to install games. Most of my games are installed on my third
drive which is a 2TB SSD.

Game Pass games use protected folders, and if format Windows, it no longer recognizes any game even if it is on another external hard drive or hard drive. If you install it on a Windows or PC you don't recognize any of the games.

Have you installed the game on your hard drive?.

And no you can't play the pc version on your xbox.
