okay so I have the 14-day trial pass to Game Pass. I've had it for 3 days and now all the sudden it won't let me play sea of Thieves it says I have to buy it and asks if I own it. Am I missing something but I thought I had 14 days to play it before I had

Not a bad mixpot for a small show i take the gears pop any day won't play sea of thieves again. I know you get both but still don't want to play sea of thieves again.

do you have normal gamepass or gamepass ultimate, you need ultimate if you want to play this game as it is an online game only and therefore requires gold.

Hi, I hope you're doing great out there. I am an Independent advisor and I am here to help you in regard to your concern.

I would like to clarify, what Xbox game pass subscription do you have? It is required to have an active Xbox Live Gold subscription to play an online multiplayer game. It’s either you have an Xbox Live Gold subscription or Xbox Game Pass Ultimate which includes Xbox Live Gold.

To check please follow the steps below:

Press the Xbox button on your controller to open the guide, and then select System > Settings > Account > Subscriptions.

Hello Gavinrjohnson,

Greetings!

Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community.

It seems that you are having issue installing the game in different drive of your PC. Let us check and see on what we can do to help resolve your concern in a timely manner.

Games must be installed to drives formatted as an NTFS volume with a 4K cluster size. Install attempts to any other volume type will not be supported. You can allocate a 4K cluster size for drive where you are trying to install the game by formatting the partition and specifying the desired cluster size. Please note that formatting a partition will erase all data on it, so make sure to back up any important files before proceeding.

Press Win + E to open Windows File Explorer.
Right-click on the partition you want to format and select Format.
In the Format window, click on the Allocation Unit Size drop-down menu and select 4096 bytes.
Select Quick Format and click on Start.
A warning message will appear, click on Yes to continue.
