  1. Need Help Installing Game Pass games to D: drive after Windows reset


    For context, I had all my games working fine previously, but after needing to do a full reset on Windows in order to update it, I can no longer install games to my D: drive rather than my boot drive. Every time I try, I get to 100%, then error code 0x80070005, which seems to just mean "We have no idea when wrong, sorry lol".

    I've tried swapping "Change where new content is saved" back and forth, unlocking the WindowsApps folder, uninstalling and reinstalling the Xbox app(which also cannot install to the D: drive), and a couple other things. Definitely need help with this issue.

    EDIT: Steam games work just fine. This issue is only affecting my ability to install games when I try to do it through the Xbox app.

    :)
