    Moving Game Files so no need to Reinstall


    Hello. I have a game installed on another Platform (Steam) and i want to move its files to the xBox Gamepass so i dont have to redownload it. The reason is that i downloaded a game which got free for a limited time and you are not able to keep it. Is it possible somehow ?

    :)

    Only if you have saved the file location prior moving/deleting the files, if you can't restore the files you will need to reinstall the games

    Have you uninstalled and reinstalled the game?

    Any save file may be corrupted so you may need to start a new game
