I got the Xbox Game Pass but I can't install half for the games

DTM7007 · Nov 5, 2022

So I recently got the game pass to try out some games but could only download 1 of them (Sea Of Thieves). I also wanted to download Farming Simulator 2022 but ran into a error to download cycle were I couldn't download the game.

Hi, we can try one more thing before considering a windows reinstallation.

This is:
Create a new NTFS partition, once created go to Windows settings > system storage advance storage options (only windows 11) > where new content is saved > under Apps select the new partition
After that restart the PC and try installing your games on that partition / drive

If you maybe need to know how to create the partition. Check this article

So basically it is stuck on preparing to download and nothing happens

That's odd... In this case I can advise you two more things:

1. Run the SFC tool to find and repair possible system corruptions

2. Perform an in-place upgrade for your system (don't worry your content will remain)

I've done all possible options nothing changed.

I have tried all listed fixes but I keep having the same problem the game would not download at all.
