    If you have it installed from another store you will need to install it again to use the Windows Store version

    Halo The Master Chief Collection Download Bug

    apparently the game will download normally, but I don't know how to change the folder the game will download, it is trying to download to my SSD but it has no space, can you tell me how I can change the location where the game will be downloaded?

    in the Microsoft store APP

    Rise of the Tomb Raider only starts with DLC installed, if console is switched offline.

    Interesting. I have the game and all it's DLC installed on an external hard drive with no issues. The only difference I can see is that you're using an SSD hard drive where I use a plain old WD Elements.

    I'm wondering if it's something to do with the nature of how SSD drives store data compared to none SSD drives.

    Do you have the external drive set as the default location for all downloads/installs in the storage settings on the Xbox ?

    Install games to external SSD to play on different PC

    If you've already set up and downloaded games to that external SSD in your laptop
    You can only use the games downloaded from there

    Because the games are attached to the "laptop ID" and the Xbox app only recognizes the games that matches with that "ID"

    If maybe you want to use the external SSD with your PC and laptop you need to create a new NTFS partition and re-download the games that you want to play on PC there

    Hi,

    How many drives does your PC have and have you set them up for use with the Window Store? I've just started the download of this game and I'm installing to my third drive (F:\) which is an SSD.

    What happens when you choose another drive other than C:\?
