how do I uninstall and reinstall a game on Xbox beta

Zetsky · Dec 29, 2019

Ever since the recent update I am unable to play Outer Worlds which I had installed before the update. It shows as installed but when I hit play it just closes down the app. I've restarted my computer and tried all the different ways of pressing play on
the app, but always get the same result, it shuts the app down. I have another game installed that I added after the update and this doesn't happen with that game. I thought maybe if I could reinstall it that might solve the problem?? But I can't figure out
how to do that. Anybody know how?

That's great. Glad it worked for you. Let us know how it goes.

Have you tried right clicking on the game to see if there is an uninstall option there?

Thanks, but the problem was - the latest update is what made it not work. And I couldn't download it again - because it's already downloaded. Was looking for how to uninstall so I could download it again

it can be done from the game icon itself, with the right mouse button or from the application settings munu and uninstalled as a normal program

Yes - that worked! We'll see if the game works again when I reinstall it now.

Thanks!
