    Hi FanaticCell! My name is Ricardo an independent advisor ready to help you with this situation!

    Some games can only be installed on the windowsapp folder, this game it's one of them that's why you don't have the option to change the path during the installation, you can only change the installation drive

    Cannot change game install location in Xbox App. Every single install goes to the WindowsApps folder.

    I'm having basically the exact same problem. No matter how many times I change the install location settings in the Xbox app, the changes will not save at all, and the games will only install to the folder on my D drive that I had selected before this problem started occurring. I tried everything I know how, and none of it worked, which leads me to believe that this is a bug on Microsoft's end, specifically in the Xbox app itself.

    The full details of every troubleshooting step I tried are in this post: Xbox App doesn't let me change install folders in Windows 10 - Microsoft Community

    PC Xbox app won't launch games

    Hello, alexvor20. Thanks for reaching out! My name is Lucas, and I'm an Independent Advisor and a Microsoft user just like you. I'll be happy to assist you today.

    Since you think the install location of the games may be impacting their launch (and reading your issue I also think it), then you can try to change the default location where Xbox App install your games.

    To specify where to download and install Xbox games on Xbox App, use these steps:

    Open Xbox app.

    Click the profile menu in the top-right and select the Settings options.

    Click on General.

    (Optional) Under the “Game install options” section, select the drive to install games by default.

    Click the Change folder option.

    Select the new folder location to store Xbox games.

    Click the Select Folder button.

    After you complete the steps, the game files will be stored in the new folder location.

    The install location of apps and games that you download from Microsoft Store is C:\Program Files\WindowsApps. So change your Xbox App folder to this path, uninstall your games, install them again on this folder and see if you can run your games.
