Only the digital version of Forza Horizon 3 can be played on both Xbox One and Windows 10 PC as you can see here:

Your disc version is available only for xbox one console

Hello Bidoof, this is Manuela. I'm an Independent Advisor and community user like you, ready to assist with this.

I'm sorry to hear you're experiencing this inconvenience while trying to download Forza Horizon on your PC. Let's try to sort this out.

However. Before that, I appreciate it if you can provide the following information:

What's the error code you're getting?
Is the same happening when you try to download other games?
Are you using Windows 10 or Windows 11?
What procedures you tried to fix this so far?

So I get the code 0x80070002 on the xbox app, and on the Microsoft store I only get "There's a problem on our end".

The only games I own on Microsofts platform is Forza Horizon 5 and Forza Horizon 4. And all the times I tried to download both Forza Horizon 5 and 4.
I am currently using Windows 11 but this problem happened on my old pc as well and that pc used Windows 10. Now I could sometimes download both Fh5 and Fh4 on my old pc but not on my new one!

I haven't tried any fix yet because I don't know any fixes

I finally got Forza Horizon 3 downloading on my PC, but I had to reinstall Windows to get it to download.

If you can't see an install link under Forza Horizon 3, when you click to it through the Ultimate Bundle, then your install of Windows 10 might be "broken". Performing a reset might help resolve the issue, but it is time consuming, and will require the reinstall
of some of your programs (the Windows 10 apps, however, 'should' be reinstalled)

Just to get that sure for me. On Gamestar.de and Golem.de I read, that

" Das Play-Anywhere-Programm unterstützt ausschließlich digital erworbene Spiele. Wenn Sie also beispielsweise eine Disc-Version von Forza Horizon 3 für die Xbox One kaufen, können Sie sie nicht am PC spielen."

It says, that "The Play-Anywhere-Programm only supports digital bought Games. If you buy the Disc Version of Forza Horizon 3 for Xbox One for example, you can't play it on PC"

So just to get sure, If i buy the Xbox One Disc Vsion, I can activate and Play it on PC without haveing an Xbox. And gamestar.de and golem.de statet that wrong?

I have been playing Forza Horizon 3 Standard on my Xbox One for a few days now, I bought the disc. I am logged in to my account on the Xbox but don't have an Xbox Gold Membership.

I have updated my Windows 10 to the Anniversary version. When I go to the Xbox store from Windows 10, click on My Account then My Library, all of my games are there except Horizon 3. When I go to the Store and select Horizon 3, it only says Buy Now, there
is no manage or download button. My PC is well above the minimum specs Do I need a Gold membership to use Play Anywhere for this game? Is there something else I am missing?

did you ever find a fix for this? im still getting this error now
