    Game Pass for PC says I don't have enough free space when I do


    I'm trying to install the Master Chief Collection- it says I need 137gb free. I have 251gb free on my C: drive, so I set it to install there.

    It'll really quickly install a few small (10mb-50mb) things, and I'll get notifications saying various Halo games are ready to play.

    Then it starts the main download, and it almost instantly errors out.

    Things I've tried already:
    Installing it to a spare HDD where I have ~700gb free, same issue.
    Changing my default install location to that HDD both in the Xbox app and Windows before attempting to install.
    Entirely reinstalling the Xbox app.
    Restarting my PC, multiple times.

    I'm entirely out of ideas- I've been trying to solve this problem on and off for a few days now. I just wanted to play Halo.

    If more screenshots/info would be helpful I'd be happy to provide them.

    :)

    Hello EB1GA,

    Thank you for your response and we appreciate for your patience.

    We have found additional steps to fix the issue which is to force/manually start the Xbox related updates.

    Go to Microsoft Store App > Download and Updates (top right corner) and manually start the updates with any app that calls out for Xbox or Gaming.

    If still not works, then try a repair install of Windows without removing my files and programs.

    Hi, thanks for the response!
    I cancelled my gamepass a couple months ago, and only just got it again early this week. Since I got gamepass again I've not been able to download Halo MCC- I first tried that on Friday. I was previously able to download, install. and play MCC perfectly fine.

    To be clear, other games are perfectly fine. I've installed several other titles- mostly smaller ones, but at least one was roughly the same size- with no issues.

    I have:
    restarted my PC
    made sure windows is up to date
    made sure xbox and gaming services is up to date
    made sure I'm signed into the same account for windows and xbox
    and removed and reinstalled gaming services.

    Nothing has helped, I still have the same problem.
