    Game won't stop preparing for download

    Hi MihaiManole1! My name is Ricardo an independent advisor ready to help you with this situation!

    Clear and reset Store cache in Windows

    Step 1: Close Windows Store app if it’s running.

    Step 2: In the Start menu search box, type WSReset (Windows Store Reset) to see Wsreset in the search results.

    Step 3: Right-click on WSReset and then click Run as administrator option.

    Step 4: restart Pc and Modem/router

    If this doesn't work, try this

    Open Start, type: powershell

    Right click PowerShell

    Click Run as administrator

    At the command prompt, type the following then hit Enter:

    Get-AppXPackage *WindowsStore* -AllUsers | Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register "$($_.InstallLocation)\AppXManifest.xml"}

    Exit Powershell then restart.

    Problem with update and new Nordic (Danish) version

    Same goes for the Netherlands. The game will run, sometimes without a hitch, but as soon as the update pops up the game stops and since the update won't install it kind of breaks the game.

    @Microsoft: please provide a working update or pull the existing update so the game at least runs while you prepare a working update.

    AC Unity Download freezing.

    My game won't download at all. When I put the code in, it got to the queue. After everything in the way of it gor installed, the download stopped. I cleared the system cache multiple times and the download immediately stops every time.

    Preowned games?

    Unfortunately, in 2015 you won't be able to find any "prepared" games. Everything that gets released is in an unprepared state.

    Game pass broken for many users? Games pending install?

    Meant games show preparing and I can't download them.....
