PLEASE HELP: How do I change a games icon or hide a game without deleting it?

Hi AwareAssassin44,

maybe we need more information to help "Computer or Console and if console which one" I've never heard of us being able to use our own icons for games on XBOX. But probably I'm not uptodate so please help us to help you!

I'm curious how this works if it concerns an XBOX console

But when it comes to hiding something from other users of your console, you probably have no choice but to always delete the game before your Logout. This game will not be available for them!!

Hi AwareAssassin44,

Thanks for reaching out to us in the forums with this question. In regard to changing a games icon in our My Games & Apps section, this feature is not possible at this time; however you do have a couple of ways to hide games that are there if they are in
your Ready to Install area or have no achievements. Beyond that, the game may simply remain in your My Games & Apps section so long as it is downloaded to your console.

Here are some great support articles that contain instructions for hiding games:

Hiding games with no achievements on Xbox One

Hide or unhide items in Ready to Install

I hope that this helps you out! Let us know if you have further questions.

Thanks.

I found the hide game thingy, so that hides it - but how are you supposed to clear disk occupied unless you uninstall, but uninstall does not exist unless download complete?

If you downloaded so-so-gigabytes but decided not to complete it.

There must be a way to abort-so temporary download files are deleted?

It feels like you in windows would remove an icon from desktop, and consider program removed and uninstalled.

I will make a good read on the help in general and see if I find anything.

I actually liked the other one better. I do like that they changed the Dead Island icon though

You can't delete them>>>you can only hide them from your list. Here' how:

1. In Ready to install, highlight a game or app.
2. Press the Menu button on your controller.
3. Select Hide from list.

Edit: Sorry but on Windows 10 you can't remove a game from your library. You can only uninstall it. Only Xbox One has the hide feature. Here's how to uninstall a game:

You can uninstall the Game from the Start menu by following the steps below:

1. Open start menu by pressing Windows icon Key on the keyboard.
2. Right click on the installed game and select Uninstall/Remove.
