    Xbox app on PC missing library

    But I still have my hard drive with my games installed on them and I haven't changed my install location. Shouldn't all my games still be showing in the Xbox app until I change where it is looking for those games?

    How do i add space from 1 drive to another.

    Hi Samantha!

    Have you already changed your install location through the Xbox app?

    Open your Xbox app > Settings > General. Set your location to D drive where you want to install your new games
