How to install sea of thieves If there wont ever be enough space on C drive

Access denied error means that you don't have the necessary permissions to run the command. Here are a few ways to try to bypass it:

Run the command prompt as an administrator.

Use "sudo" before the command if you're on a Linux-based system.

Check if your account has the necessary permissions to run the command. If not, ask your system administrator to grant you the permissions.

good evening

You can try the following steps to install Sea of Thieves on a different drive:

Create a symbolic link (also known as a "junctions") between the folder where Windows Store installs apps on the C drive, and a folder on the D drive. This tricks the Windows Store into thinking the app is installed on the C drive, when it's actually on the D drive.

Uninstall Sea of Thieves from the Windows Store, if it's already installed.

Open an elevated Command Prompt window (right-click the Start button and select "Command Prompt (Admin)").

Run the following command to create a symbolic link:

mklink /J "C:\Program Files\WindowsApps\Microsoft.SeaOfThieves_1.0.29.0_x64__8wekyb3d8bbwe" "D:\SeaOfThieves"

Close the Command Prompt window and open the Windows Store app.

Reinstall Sea of Thieves and it should install to the D drive, using the symbolic link created in step 4.

This should resolve your issue and allow you to install Sea of Thieves on the D drive.

It seems I've done everything I could. I've ran in administrator and I've tried to get more permission on my pc by doing the command "net user administrator /active:yes" without the quotation marks and still after trying I'm still told access denied when running the main command you provided.

Thank you for the response. After running the command in administrator mode I'm met with access denied and now I'm not sure where to go from here I don't usually work with the command prompt so Im not sure what commands I should be running to bypass this stuff
