  1. How do i install Xbox app and program file,windowsapp in a costum foulder?


    Windows is installed in Disk C and when i select the xbox installation location to Disk D it creates Windowsapp,Program Files, Xboxgames foulders, i dont want the foulders random in Disk D without any kind of organization, i want to install the xbox app in a custom foulder inside Disk (D), How hard is to to be able to install Xbox app and games wherever i want just like any other gaming platform/launcher?

    Tell me a way on how to get xboxgames,windowsapp, program file all inside the costum foulder that i want, i really dont understand the necessity to create these useless foulders when installing the app/game.

    Unfortunately, I don't have any further advice to offer. I've explained that while it's possible to move the XboxGames folder, the other 2 folders can't be moved. I understand that wasn't the answer you were looking for, but it's the correct answer. As mentioned above, you can submit feedback to Microsoft regarding this using Feedback Hub.

    There are many knowledgeable users active on the forum and I hope that someone else can offer further insight on your issue.

    Thanks,
    Kyle

    I am sorry Rafael but as explained above, these folders have to be in the root of the drive. That's how it's been designed and changing it would require a lot of time and testing, it's not as simple as just flicking a switch to allow the folders to be moved. There must be a good reason for this limitation.

    Please understand that I’m doing my best to provide you with accurate and helpful information, but I can’t change the facts or the options available to you.

    If you'd like to send feedback to Microsoft regarding this, use the Feedback Hub: https://support.microsoft.com/windows/f59187f8-8739-22d6-ba93-f66612949332

    Press Windows key + F to open the Feedback Hub. Sign into your account and go to the feedback tab. Press 'Give new feedback' and provide as much information as possible about this.
