    How can I install a game I own, but is not in my library on PC?


    I wanted to install a game that I own on my Xbox to my PC. The game is Sea of Thieves, and as I said, I own the game on the account. The problem is that when I try to install it onto my PC, it says I have to buy it. It also is not shown in my library on the Xbox app.

    Do you own the game on disc or digital? If it's disc, then that will be why the game does not show in your library on PC, as you need to own the digital version for that to show up in your PC library.

    my digital copy of Flight sim. has disappeared from my system , How do i re-install it ?

    Hi there,

    any content that you own should show up in your Library and from there you can install/download it again.
    On a console you can find your library in the My Games & Apps section and on PC you should be able to see it via the Store app on the Library button (bottom left). Just be sure you are signed in with the account that owns the content

    How do I view my xbox one games on a PC or mobile phone?

    Hi Francia, thanks for the reply. If I want to use the PC Xbox app, how can I look at Xbox One games instead of PC games? When I navigate to "Games I Own" on this app, it shows one installed game, called Microsoft Solitaire Collection. Based on this, I believe this application is showing me my PC games on the PC I'm on, not my Xbox games (like the name of the app would suggest). I am not interested in PC games at all, just managing my Xbox One library from my PC (or phone).

    Thanks,
    Matt

    How can I install a game on pc that I own on xbox?

    You can only install Xbox games on your PC if they are 'Play Anywhere titles'. If they are not part of the program, you will need to buy them again on another platform such as Steam.

    How can I install a game on pc that I own on xbox?

    Hey there, Rauls Lauskis

    It will depend on what the game is and if the game is an Xbox play anywhere game. You can find out more in this link here: Xbox Play Anywhere | Xbox

    If it is an Xbox play anywhere game, you will be able to see the game in your game library when you launch the Xbox App. Do you see your game in the "My Library" section of the Xbox app?

    Thanks,

    Nathan
