    Install issue not detecting hard drive


    Game pass is only detecting one of my hard drives when I try to install a game. When I try to install a game with game pass the menu to select which hard drive appears but only my C: drive is available. I can install other games on platforms like steam and Epic on my D: drive just fine but when I try to use the Xbox app and game pass my D: drive does not appear.

    :)

    Install issue not detecting hard drive

    I'm Samy an independent advisor. Welcome to the Xbox community. How are you?

    Go to settings>system>storage>click change where new content is saved change to desired drive and save. Then try installing a game again through the Xbox app or through the Microsoft Store app on your Windows.

    with steam you can add additional disks in the downloads tab in settings

    I use the same conventions of

    Program Files (x86)/Steam

    which I create before selecting the disk, this way the secondary disks are easily copied to another disk when necessary

    I have several such disks to handle a large library of games

    update failed

    The Ethernet Cable wouldn't be the issue here. The issue with this specific error code is that the XBOX 360 can't detect your storage device for your XBOX 360 to install the update.

    If you can't get it to install correctly with that hard drive, try to remove the hard drive and use a USB Flash Drive and configure that with your XBOX 360 and try to install the update then.

    games disappeared

    Hello James,

    It appears that the installations for the games mentioned were not on the hard drive after turning the console on.

    Originally was the hard drive detected when installing the games the first time around?

    If the hard drive is removed for instance, do the games come up as installed?

    Attempt to follow our Troubleshoot external storage detection on Xbox One article, and let us know
    how this goes!

    Best wishes!
