    How can I change the install directory of this game?


    I have other Windows Store apps that I don't mind being on C:, but my C: drive is an SSD, and I want to put Killer Instinct on my larger storage drives.

    Is it possible to install only this game on D:?

    If not, is this game going to be available on another platform like Steam that allows installing to other drives?

    :)

    Stream to Steam

    First off, I want to start by saying how difficult it is to navigate this website. I accidentally posted to the 360 forums and now I have to sacrifice a small goat to the Internet gods in order for me to change it.

    now that's out of the way, Steam has this thing that allows you to add non-steam games to the game directory, (you can add whatever program you want) and then you can configure your settings for streaming (Tested this with VLC, it works). I have done that and
    now I want to do it with the Xbox Live app on Windows 10. The problem is that I can't find the install directory for the Xbox Live App on Windows 10. Once I have it, I'll be able to pinpoint the executable and stream the content to all of my friends on steam.

    Can anybody point me in the right direction?

    Xbox PC app - Can't change game installation folder

    This has been such a tedious process, it's ridiculous how difficult it is to change something so simple as a game installation directory. I do however consider this particular issue to be a bug, since they're actually giving me the option to change the game installation directory in the Xbox app, but in my case changing it doesn't take effect. Hopefully this will be fixed in the next update.

    Anyhow, I managed to "fix" the issue by deleting the following registry key; "Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\GamingServices". After deleting this reg key and restarting the Xbox app, I no longer get the option to select a specific game installation directory in the app, but it does still allow me to select a drive. Selecting the D: drive now automatically installs the games in the D:\WindowsApps folder like it used to before this issue occurred.

    xbox game pass for pc causing BSOD

    So I was getting the same sort of issues. I have Sophos Enterprise installed on my PC and just listed my new install directories as exclusions for scanning and it's now working.

    I noticed the old Windows Apps directories were listed in exclusions so thats why older installations were working.

    Xbox Game Store changed the install directories so check where your games are installed.

    I did every diagnostic check under the sun and in the end, it was just an access issue caused by my anti-virus.

    On the plus side, my pc is now in a very healthy state lol

    Thank you for the quick response!

    I may have, but only after the games disappeared from the list. If i change the installation path back to the drive and directory shown in the image, nothing changes.
