I have C: drive and two more ssd discs and one hdd. I was trying on both ssd discs and it's not working. But it's working on hdd disc. I wasn't trying on C: drive.

May I know if you’re trying to install those games on a different partition?
I mean, not on C: drive

By the way, is this happening with this specific game?

Did you try uninstalling gaming services via powershell command?

In the windows search bar type Powershell > Right click and select open as administrator > Type the command: "get-appxpackage Microsoft.GamingServices | remove-Appxpackage –allusers" (without the "")

Wait for the process to finish and then restart the PC, then open your Xbox gamepass app, it will ask you to install the gaming services again, install it and try again.

Update: Gaming services is finally installed after hours. Still an error when trying to download a big game (Sea of Thieves is the one I am trying to download). But now it gives another error code: 0x80070005. This is very annoying, trying to get this
fixed for days now.
