    My SSD's are formatted to NTFS.
    I have uninstalled and reinstalled the app a few times with no success both from the Microsoft store and online.
    I have reset the App itself and still did not work.

    My SSD's are discover-able as I have installed games from ubisoft, steam and GOG Galaxy.

    My account is an admin account.

    I am unsure what else to try.

    Any information would be extremely helpful as I don't want to keep paying for something I cannot even use.

    Thank you Can't install games on my PC through the XBOX app because SSD's cannot be discovered :)
    Lachlan.

    :)

    Hi all,

    To those who seem to have the same issue as I do. Mine was fixed, the way I did it was to ensure that you have the latest windows version, even the optional updates.

    Good luck gamers.

    Thank you for getting back to me.
    Unfortunately all these steps above did not work.

    Is there anything else I can try?

    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
