    How do I remove unneeded video files from Age of Empires IV (4) PC


    I have it installed through the Windows Store/PC Xbox App

    So I just saved 30+ gb of space on my SSD by removing the 4k Video Addon.

    In File Path

    C:\Program Files\WindowsApps\Microsoft.Cardinal_5.0.9369.0_x64__8wekyb3d8bbwe\cardinal\movies\source\campaign

    I see 6 separate language folders, each around 6gb in size. I only need the English ones so I don't really see the need for the wasted storage space, bandwidth, server use, electricity, etc to force each user to download 8 other copies of the same cut scenes.

    When I try to delete the files or folders, even as Administrator it says 'try again'

    Any ideas or Dev feedback?

    :)

    messing with the windowsapp folder and its contents can break the xbox app games due to the encryption, you would then have to redownload everything if this were to happen. they are locked away for a reason as its microsofts DRM control.

    Hi,

    In a nutshell, you can't. Any game installed to the WindowsApps folder will be encrypted and protected. They will remain this way even if you assign the folder permissions to yourself.

    The Steam version would likely let you do it - but then it probably won't have all the languages install anyway.

    Age of Empires 4 Crashes on startup

    Hello Gzas, I am an independent advisor and I will be happy to help you today. My name is Khaji

    I'm sorry you're having problems with Age of Empires 4.

    Check the integrity of game files: Corruption of game files is one of the common causes of game crashing issue. If some important game files are missing or corrupted, the game may crash

    Update your graphics driver: The graphics driver is essential for the operation of video games. If Age of Empires 4 keeps crashing on your PC, you probably have a corrupt or outdated graphics driver on your PC. Therefore, you should update your drivers to see if that fixes the game crashing issues.

    Install the latest game patch: Game developers regularly release game patches to improve game stability and fix bugs encountered by players

    Disable overlays: Overlays can sometimes interfere with gameplay and even crash game files, which can cause the game to crash.

    Temporarily disable antivirus software: Some antivirus programs may prevent the game from launching or may quarantine critical game files during download

    Repair corrupt system files: Some corrupt system files can cause problems with games

    Perform a clean boot: This can remove any data that may be interfering with the operation of the game

    Repair the game through app settings: Go to Windows Settings, select Apps & Features, find Age of Empires 4 in the list of apps, select Advanced Options, and then click Repair

    I hope that these points that I leave you below are of very good help dear!
