    Just comes up with this message:

    "Where do you want to install?

    It looks like you don’t have any applicable device(s) linked to your Microsoft account. To install, sign in on a device with your Microsoft account."

    I'm already signed into hotmail and signed in on the same live account on windows 10.

    I disabled the Windows Store, surely I don't need the Store app just to play a game I bought?

    :)

    PC Games Pass Issue, cant see anything - Support is useless, plz help

    I've run windows update, i've checked both windows store and xbox app for updates, i've tried uninstalling, repairing and resetting the app. Nothing has worked. If i uninstall and reinstall - my installed games will load in the menu, but when i check for install location nothing is there and it won't let me select it. If i go out of the app and go back in it then goes back to the previous issue.

    I'm sorry to hear you're not able to download your recently purchased game. Let's try to sort this out.

    However, I appreciate it if you can share the following information:

    Additionally, is your platform Xbox or PC?

    Issues with Minecraft for Windows 10

    I have the same issue. I have restarted Store app Cache, done what the troubleshooting forums say for "cache" issues on Microsoft store, but still can't download the game. I bought 2 codes, one of them for a friend of mine. He managed to install it with
    no problems but I can't.

    Isn't there a way to get the download file and then link the game? I've wasted almost my entire Saturday trying to fix windows problems when getting the installation file would be easier.

    Please let me know if there is a way to fix this issue. I've tried reinstaling Store app, clening cache, windows store webpage... I have my computer as a device but when i click install it doesnt appear as an option....

    Please let me know. Thanks
