    Issues with installing games through xbox app on pc


    When I try to install games on the Xbox app or Microsoft Store it only lets me use drive C, even though I can see drive D in the settings. I think this might be due to the fact that I recently replaced my D drive since my old one stopped working. I have some pictures showing what exactly is happening. I tried fixing it, even contacting Microsoft support but they did not help me at all. I would be grateful if you guys could help me. I really want to play Forza Horizon 5, but it will not fit on my drive C - it only has 8 GB left. Thanks!

    Can't play minecraft

    Hi, the game (minecraft) is not installed through the xbox app. I don't even have the xbox app installed on my pc. I've tried repairing and uninstalling the game but the issue does not go away.

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

    As our friend mentioned above it may be that your hard drive is not using the proper file format and you will need to format it to NTFS.

    You can right-click on your hard drive and click on properties, where it will show the file system you are using.

    Hi, I had a same question with you.
    The way I solved this situation is to do a disk formatting, since some games can't be installed in the exFAX system we need to format the SSD from exFAX to NTFS.

    Hope it helps.
