    Import app/game from old disk


    Hello, basically i had installed Age of Empires Definitive Edition on my Notebook. Now i have installed an SSD and made a fresh installation of Windows. I'm still having the other Drive with all the data. I don't want to download it again. Is it possible
    to copy the old folder (stored somewhere, i know how to access the folder) and have the game installed without downloading it again? Thanks in advance.

    :)

  2. NEW Avatar wearing purchases from old Avatar app.... Possible?

    So has everyone already knows, Microsoft recently upgraded the Avatar app for Xbox. In doing so anything that you previously bought from the Avatar shop is now locked in the old app. The only way to access any of it is to dress up your old Avatar and then
    import your old Avatar with the editor app.

    All I want to know is...

    Can I create a brand new avatar from scratch, and then dress them up in the purchased items from the old app?

    Basically brand new Avatar, wearing old items!

    the crazy part about this whole thing is it took 3 hours in life chat with a tech guy to find out that in order to import my old Avatar... I would first need to go to my PC, upgrade my operating system to Windows 10, then download the Avatar app, then download
    the Avatar editor app, then open the at Avatar app, then open the editor Avatar app, then hit import... Finished!

    Reliance on one device to fix another device is a serious problem I think!

    If I have a problem with something on my Xbox I should not need to go to my computer in order to fix it!

    what would have happened if I was the guy that owned an Xbox One console but did not own a computer? Then what would have happened?

    Hi Del,

    I believe you should be able to copy or move the folder from your Notebook's internal hard drive to your external SSD as long as you can have both drives up on your computer.

    If you know how to locate the folder and select the option to copy or move and then select the location you want to move it to give it a try and let us know if it worked.

    If it doesn't you will need to install it again onto your new SSD.

    Thanks. Unfortunally, i've tried copying the folders (while downloading the game and pausing the download, dealing with the permissions), but it didn't work.

    If you change the location of the files the game will not know to look in the new folder. Usually you would get an error about the files are missing. You will have to download the game again to the new destination.
