GEARS OF WAR 4 Over 288gb and still downloading

Have you tried following the install path to delete the folders there to completely uninstall the game if you choose?

Hey there powerhousepr,

Thanks for reaching out to the Forums for clarity on why the game is this size.

After a game is published, updates might be needed to improve certain features or streamline the gameplay.

That being said, if you're running into problems with uninstalling it or installing it, I would refer you to the steps/info on Troubleshoot
game installations on Windows 10 for potential resolution.

Also, please be mindful that it is against Xbox Forums Guidelines to encourage or discuss illicit ways to obtain our digital content.

Once again, if you're dealing with download issues, try those steps and let us know if that helped.

Thanks for reading!

Try opening a powershell with admin privileges and running these two commands:

sfc /scannow

wsreset

Once that's done, try the install again - see if it actually works.

You have nothing Gears of War 4ish in your Add/Remove programs correct?

You can get access to the WindowsApps folder by following instructions here:

There are risks to this, do so at your own choice.

You have to remember that almost all these modders have 0 clues or actual context of what’s being discuss.

they will take anything out of context.

Another FACT is that Microsoft actually said they allowed Windows 10 to be Pirated in China cuz it was the right move. So if we are going to talk about piracy, MICROSOFT does encourage the piracy of their own software.

But whatever, i just rather ignore the poor guy over discussing matters with these people.

He didn't discuss or encourage ways, He stated a fact.
