I can't install Minecraft for Windows on my PC

Thank you for the update. Have you also tried to install the game on a different drive? If not, please try this one:

While C is the default drive where all apps and games are installed, you may choose to install it elsewhere. You can also create a separate drive if you want. While you do get an option to choose the installation drive when using an executable file, that is not the case when using Microsoft Store.

Instead, you will need to tweak settings to change the default drive for installing new apps.

1. Press Windows+I to open settings and go to Settings > System > Storage > Advanced storage settings. Select Where new content is saved here.

2. Select a drive under New Apps and save it to the heading.

If the issue still remains and since we have exhausted all the troubleshooting steps, I highly advise you to contact Mojang Support as they may offer further solutions:

I understand. Don't worry, we still have a few workarounds to try.

Please try running SFC Scan & DISM to search and repair corrupted system files. Here's how to do it:

> Right-click your Windows start menu icon
> Select Windows PowerShell (Admin)
> Type sfc /scannow and press enter and wait until it finishes
> Type DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth and press enter and wait until it finishes
> Reboot your PC
> Check if it was fixed.

According to one of the users who resolved the issue by following the instructions from the video link:

I currently cant upgrade to Windows 11 as I don't have the proper specs, maybe that's what causing the issue?

None of this worked either, sadly.
