    Few things that need to be fixed, IMO


    I sometimes have to redo my pc due to hardware changes, crashes, what ever that goes on that makes me have to do a refresh of my OS, and its a pitb (pain in the butt) to reinstall the app, but because of the drive I used in my pc dedicated to just xbox pc
    games, I cannot reuse that same drive without getting a error and having to format the drive to be able to use it and direct the app to it. The folders causing this are locked and cannot remove them, so I have to format the whole drive, and it would be nice
    to be able to redo my pc, and redirect the app to that drive I was using before the reformat, and NOT have to re download all the games over again, like I can do with steam. I have all my games downloaded to another drive in my pc dedicated to steam, Origin,
    and GOG, but because of this, and I have to use another drive dedicated to xbox app due to having to reformat it anytime I have to redo my pc and the app because it will no longer use that drive ever and errors out when it asks to delete other stuff to use
    it, and then tells me I cannot use that drive, and only way to reuse that drive it to reformat it, then I can select it once again and put xbox games to it. Since Im using but a small ssd, 1tb, there isnt enough space to use it all the time for xbox and other
    stuff I install, it will get filled up super quick if I did, wouldnt be a problem if I was using a large hdd spinner since I have to re-download it all and the folders would be gone, but because it is a ssd drive, I have to store the games on a totally separate
    drive from anything elese due to having to reformat it if I have to redo my system, and the app, for anything else I put on that drive Im going to lose, so I have to all the time use one drive in my pc for the sole purpose of the xbox app, and nothing else,
    and its not right Few things that need to be fixed, IMO :p

    For another thing I may suggest is when using the app, and selected see all, can you set it up so it doesn't start over from the top of the list, but where I was the last time? Its a pitb to have to start at the top all the time, especially when installing
    all my games over for Im forced to, and the system gets choked up and stutters BAD trying to get it to scroll down when installing more then 5 games at a time, due to the reasons I mentioned up top. It takes forever to scroll down every time for it lags BAD
    when doing so if I cant just download one time, then if I have to redo my system and cannot just remap that drive again to all the games I downloaded before. I thought it was because I had but a older AMD 1600, but now that I put in a AMD 3600X and upgraded
    from 16gb to 32gb of ram, its still laggy as all get out.

    And Im not sure about this, but it sometimes goes out of the game I choose to download and get a all grey screen. If I close it out and try to restart it, it stays with the all grey screen till I open task manager and kill the xbox app process and restart
    it, then it works fine, but unless I do that or restart my system, its grey all the time.

    Anyway, just a few things I thought you'd like to know some of us may have to go through to use it, and maybe like to see a way around it in the future. I mean if the folders it goes to are going to be locked where I cant remove them, then please make them
    at least so I dont have to have soooo many hard drives in my rig, and one just for xbox because the only way I can re-download the games again to a drive I cannot lose info on if I map to that drive, is by using a drive just for it. Because those folders are
    on that drive before the reformat I cant use it again, ever, to put the xbox app to it again without a reformat of it removing the folders that way. PITB is all I got to say, and I know its in beta which is why I thought you need to be aware of these little
    problems in hope of a fix down the line.

    Thanks for your time,

    Jay

    Kinect on a desk... too close?

    The Nyko Zoom may fix the distance dilemma......... You still need to be positioned a few feet back though. The first gen Kinect is not much more than a novelty IMO. GOOD LUCK with your purchase.
