Hello Jonathan *. my name is Oskayra, and I will be happy to help you.

Beforehand, it is important that you keep in mind that this is a public community forum, so we are players like you, we are not employees of Microsoft or Xbox. All users help each other with common problems.

I'm very sorry for the problem you're going through, with the intention of being able to help you, I did an internal search on the Microsoft forum and found a post where they mentioned how to create a manifest file and I thought it was good information that you should take into account:

Create a manifest file

To load a resource pack in Minecraft, you will need to create a manifest file. The manifest file is a JSON file that contains the following information:

Description: This is the game's description of what the resource pack does.

Name: The name of the resource pack in the game.

UUID: The universal unique identifier.

Version: The version of the resource pack.

Minimum engine version: This is the version of Minecraft required for this pack to work.

Minecraft will parse the information from the manifest file and display it in the Addons section of the game. Within the file, the information will be divided into two distinct sections: header and modules. The header section will contain the general pack information and the modules section will contain the information for the dedicated packs.

Right-click in the Explorer window and select New > Text Document.
Call it manifest.json.

You will need to change the file extension from .txt to .json. If Filename Extensions are not displayed in the Explorer window, you can enable them in the View tab. image of the newly created file with the name manifest.json located in the My_RESOURCE_Pack folder

Double-click the manifest.json file to open it in a text editor.

Copy and paste the following code into your file.

{

"format_version": 2,

"header": {

"description": "My dirt resource pack Add-On!",

"name": "My Resource Pack",

"uuid":"",

"version": [1, 0, 0],

"min_engine_version": [1, 16, 0]

},

"modules": [

{

"description": "My First Add-On!",

"type": "resources",

"uuid": "",

"version": [1, 0, 0]

}

]

}

UUID

The Universal Unique Identifier, or UUID, is a unique number used to identify different software. In Minecraft, the UUID is used to define a specific pack and prevent any duplicate software from causing problems. For the header and modules, you will need to enter two different UUID numbers in each "uuid" field between the quotes. You can use an online UUID generator like https://www.uuidgenerator.net/

Copy and paste a UUID into the header section. You will need to paste the UUID in the "uuid":"" field between the quotes ("") for it to be read correctly.

Refresh the web page to generate a new UUID that you can use in the modules section.

Copy and paste the new UUID into the modules section, in the "uuid" field between the quotes.

Save the manifest.json file.

I resolved issue by moving my WindowsApps folder inside another temp folder, then installed MSFS to the same drive where it made another WindowsApps folder which competed the installation, I then just moved the original files from the temp Apps folder back
to the new one. Sounds simple, but I had a lot faffing about to do as moving the windowsapps folder had files inside being used by other programs like the xbox beta app and not having permissions for files and folders, a google search helped in fixing those
issues which was simple in the end.

Only other way of doing it is a clean install of windows i'm afraid

Forgot to mention, have you changed the default location of windows store apps? as choosing my drive and clicking install did absolutely nothing untill I change default apps location

Hope this helps you get up in the air.

Copied and pasted from support page :

Note The files should be copied to the root directory, and there shouldn't be any other files on the flash drive.

I take this as the file should not be placed in a folder as then it would not be placed in the root directory. I do believe it would have stated if it needed to be put in a folder.

Ok, let's update things (still didn't manage, but I hope to be getting closer).

I'm trying to replace the audio files of the game (put the English audio files in the Portuguese audio files), that would do the trick as I have seen a guy doing in the Steam version of Alien Isolation.

But, unfortunately with Microsoft everything is infinitely more difficult and I'm not able to copy anything from the folders inside WindowsApp as another guy has repported here: https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_10-files/windows-10-apps-folder-permission-to-copy-and/fcb7db14-3c19-4ad4-8fb1-b0df85e265a9?page=1

I tried to do this process in Windows Safety mode, but there I can't even access the folder.

This is really getting on my nervers...

If anyone know how I can move stuff in WindowsApp folder, please let me know!

Thanks!
