    Game is going to different file location to the one I picked.


    When I was going to download a game from the PC Pass I choose the file location that the app created for games. "C:\XboxGames"

    However when it downloaded I looked in this file and it was empty.

    I found the game in a different file location. "C:\Program Files\WindowsApps"

    I have been having issue with the PC Pass games not loading properly and I am guessing this could be a factor to my problems.

    I have made other posts about the issues I have been having with games on the PC Pass, so I just posting to ask if this could cause issues with my games.

    :)

    (PC) Gamepass I uninstalled a tmnt shredders revenge and now it wont load

    Hello Gerardo S, My name is David. I am an independent advisor, happy to help you today.

    These problems can be a little frustrating,
    First what we will do is Delete the game configuration files. In some cases, game configuration files can cause problems. Locate the game installation folder on your hard drive and delete any configuration files or save files related to the game. Then try restarting the game.

    You can also reinstall the game to a different location. Instead of reinstalling the game to the same location, try uninstalling it completely and reinstalling it to a different location on your hard drive. This may help fix issues related to the previous installation.

    Best regards.

    If you go to the Sanctuary and go up to the part of the wall that has game options...

    click load...It'll take you to a room with five pedestals which means you can have

    five separate saves aka different characters. Just make sure you make saves to the character

    you're using before loading up a different one.

    When you go to load up the game...it'll load whichever file you played last with...but all you need to do is

    again go to load and pick which file you want to resume with from there.

    memory

    A lot of games use a single Autosave file, they save to this file everyonce in a while and at key locations in the game. Usually you have to pick a storage place when you first start the game. If you bypassed that, that is why your game progress is not being
    saved. Hope that helps.

    game pass BETA (game installing and then failing)

    (Solution) I worked with support on this and ended up having to install game on a different drive. This is because the download got corrupted and the file is still in the downloads for the game pass app.

    I was unable to delete the files in this location: DeliveryOptimization\Cache.

    Game pass for PC save location

    Go to steam, click on properties under the game to locate the save file.

    Then move the file to the destination under the game pass.
